Welcome to my website!
I’ve combined my journalistic background, a love of literature and recent teaching experience to present a series of creative writing courses, both in-person and online. I’ve been teaching in-person at Sutton College since September 2023 and am now running a series of four short courses in the community in two southeast London locations. I’m about to start a new online course, too. You can book for all of them by clicking the button beneath. Whether in-person or not, each lesson has a warm-up, a theme with discussion, 25 mins’ writing time and a chance to share your work with your fellow students. In-person classes have a maximum of 12 students, and online classes contain between five and 10 students. There’s no pressure to read out, but it’s very likely that your confidence will grow, so don’t delay – book today!
