That first break
All authors need help and support when writing a first novel. This course is designed for serious writers in search of that first break. It will help you get your work to the point where it deserves attention from agents and publishers. Applicants should bring along a novel they have been working on, and be prepared to read work out to the group.
This course is now fully booked.
