YOU BEAUTIES! Target of £525 reached! (Picking up a cash donation tomorrow from several anonymous donators).Thank youuuuuuu!

Thank you SO MUCH to everyone who funded this European writing project!

I am keeping the campaign page open as I shall be updating it (and here) with news from Tallinn.

And if anyone wants to add any additional amounts ie to cover day to day expenses when in Tallinn then let them know the page is still active :)

Stop the press! NOW ONLY £60 TO RAISE after an anonymous donor has just given £20! (Read about the project in the last updated post and on the Go Fund me page itself)

All amounts help move it on and so does sharing the post.

Only £60 left. Amazing! Help me get there!

View and donate here: https://www.gofundme.com/f/6k652k0

Please note: some donations have been given in cash, bank payment or Paypal so are not all noted on the site ie it says I have more to get still than I do :) But the figure I give you is correct - SIXTY POUNDS and it's done

Thank you!

Dear All
I hope you are WONDER-FULL :) and here is my first 2020 newsletter:

Tallinn Updates
I'm off to give a reading and workshop in Tallinn next week! and though they are hosting me for some of the nights there are no fees. Therefore I am raising money to help me with the travel and other accommodation costs that I have already had to outlay - I have spent £525 which consists of £135 on airfare, £95 on train fare, £75 on Stansted Hotel and £220 on accommodation that is not covered by the venue in Tallinn.

I have made a crowdfunder to and now only have £90 to raise! I have already received £435 towards the set goal; thank you Melissa, Jude, Shannon, Alban, Suzie, Zeyad and four other anonymous donors (the page only says £305 has been raised as two people gave me their donations by other means).

I approached several arts organisations but their deadlines had gone or they said there were no funds available.

Please help with ANY amount as it all helps me get out of the red. Link here: https://www.gofundme.com/f/6k652k0

ANY size donation is helpful and I will also give the following:
  • Public thanks to all donators unless you wish to stay anonymous
  • New incentive: All donations now to receive an item of preloved clothing from the stored suitcase (many bling and vintage!) I need to empty the suitcase of these clothes before packing with Tallinn appropriate ones!
  • Digital postcards from Tallinn to all donations of £20 and over
  • A full 8 hour Creative Writing course of your choice from the menu of six! Sent digitally to all donations of £50 and over. (You can choose to have the course gifted to anyone you like so this could make a great gift! The usual retail price of the courses are between £80 and £120!). So basically you can get a full course for £50 and follow it at your own pace at any time.

Apart from donations I would be very grateful if you could share my link where possible (if you can think of anywhere) so that I further my reach outside of my own networks.

Thank you!


General News

Individual Editing and Mentoring Services are available by appointment. You can read about the process here: https://www.freewriterscentre.com/editing.html So get in touch if you want to check my availability. I've just finished interim work via email on an action thriller novel with a Humanitarian NGO worker as the heroine and I'm soon to resume work with a local writer and her book (plot is under wraps for now!). It's always inspiring and an honour to work with upcoming writers.

New course to come soon! – exploring the theme of distorted reflections and doppelgängers and using extracts from Murakami, Dostoyevsky and Alfred de Musset.

And lastly - I've finally joined LinkedIn! :) Please do add me: https://www.linkedin.com/in/free-writers-centre-77222319a/

Bye for now, Linda
