Hello dear community of writers

Ah, how time moves and we find ourselves in autumn – yet still with glimpses of the sun.

I have missed live and in-person workshops! One of the great joys I have is designing and delivering workshop material – whether that be for a few hours or a weekly course. So I'm so happy to be giving Looking at Death Looking at Us, a 2 hour workshop, as part of the annual Little Death Festival hosted by Mudita House on 30th October. There are only ten places available so register with me now by email if you wish to be part of it. See here for all details:

I've been continuing to love working with my Coaching clients and also Editing work; both developmental and copy editing. It's sincerely a joy to work with writers, at any stage of their journey, and I always find the process to be a two way street. I have space at the moment for another few clients and you can find all information here: https://www.freewriterscentre.org/coaching.html

And of course a large range of downloadable, self paced courses, tutorials and exercises are all available in my online shop: https://www.freewriterscentre.org/online-courses.html

I am coming to the end of my curatorship of the Literary Fiction department of Hypatia Publications where I set the new fiction department up and led and managed every aspect of three releases over the last 18 months. All details here: hypatia-trust.org.uk/publishing

On a personal note, as a writer myself, I aim to finish writing my collection of short stories, whilst still writing poems as they arise, and as the world opens up again I hope to be able to travel again (oh, to travel!) and take part in a residency or collaborative work.

I wish you all well with all your work and projects and and get in touch if you want any support or have any enquiry.

Creativity and solidarity! Linda
