The Ideas Factory
This is a course for those who have started writing fiction but are stuck and are wondering how they can move on again. Rather than searching for the Big Idea that will form the foundation of your novel or short story, we will show that building stories from the ground up, by close attention to detail, can be much more productive. And more exciting.
This course is fully booked. Please call the centre if you would like to be put on the waiting list or to discuss other courses.
