Course synopsis

WORDS OF PRAISE FOR GILL ROSSINI'S  CREATIVE WRITING COURSES:

'Very enjoyable...both stimulating and challenging'

'Fabulous, fun and inspiring'

'A friendly atmosphere'

'So interesting!'

This friendly and creative group is ideal for all writers, but especially those with some experience.  Together we will explore a wide variety of genres and formats,  and there will be plenty of writing prompts and exercises to inspire you, help you improve your writing technique, and nurture your own unique ‘voice’ as a writer.  You can share your work  with the group for constructive critique, but this is entirely optional. 

We will discuss the world of publishing and explore aspects of the literary world so we have a good understanding of them both, with a view to you sharing your writing with a wider audience if you wish to. 

Your tutor, Gill Rossini, is an highly experienced and published author with many years’ experience in teaching adults of all levels of ability, from basic skills to undergraduate level. A past Tutor of the Year, she nurtures a supportive and constructive environment in which adult students can flourish and stretch their skills. Apart from her prose writing, Gill is a long standing member of the Poetry Society and the Society of Authors and also runs a Zoom based non fiction history writing group, which draws in students from far afield as well as locally. She has written plays, poetry, short stories and history text books, and is currently working on a wide ranging fantasy fiction series. 

Whatever you are writing and whether you aim to publish or just to share with friends, you are assured of a warm welcome, a supportive and positive learning experience, and constructive feedback.
