Intended for:
Writers at all levels of their careers. It is particularly suited to beginners and those who need a channel to express themselves creatively. No experience is required as the programme will begin with the basics of writing and gradually move through the different stages to publishing success. It will be an enjoyable, stress free programme, with one reflection at the end. It will also help those writers working in isolation and looking for a constructive environment to share and develop work.
