The Creative Writer's Toolbelt discussion

Hi All,

Once again I am going to be part of the resident tutor team for the First Page Courses writing week in the Lake District.

This year our genre focus is:

Getting Away With Murder:
How to write a compelling crime novel.

With expert insight on building a following as a blogger and information on how to build your platform as an author.

A Five-day residential course in the Lake District with award-winning crime writer:
MARI HANNAH
And guest speakers:
WENDY H JONES
BETH PIPE

This course focuses on all aspects of crime writing, from coming up with a plausible plot to convincing characterisation. It is ideal for writers who already have a manuscript in progress, as well as for those who want to write in this genre but aren't sure where to start. Additional sessions on self-promotion and marketing, blogging and social media will offer invaluable advice for new and established authors, and there will also be the unique opportunity to have your current manuscript assessed by one of our resident tutor team.

​31st October - 4th November 2016.
£475 Full Board
Early Bird Offer: £425 until 31st July
