During this three-hour course, set in the beautiful surroundings of the National Trust estate at Coleshill, in Oxfordshire, you will explore how autumn has captured the imagination of writers throughout time, across a range of genres.

As the nights draw in and Halloween approaches, there’s no better time to explore the art of the ghost story. Inspired by the great tradition of supernatural fiction, this enjoyable and atmospheric course will help you create stories that intrigue, unsettle and stay with your readers long after the final page.

This workshop is currently being planned and the current date and time are provisional. Please register your interest and I'll confirm the final dates once there is sufficient demand. Have you always wanted to write, but aren’t quite sure where to begin? This friendly, supportive course is designed to help you take those first steps. Through simple exercises, group discussion and guided prompts, you’ll explore different ways into writing and begin to develop confidence in your own voice.
