Learn to craft Flash Fiction and Flash Nonfiction
Stories can close the distance between strangers. Like a bridge, they can help us meet each other. When our stories are in the world, we don’t know who will find them or who they will touch and hold hands with.
Have you ever wanted to write a story either fiction or creative nonfiction, but can’t work out how to start?
If you’re already writing, would you like to try something new?
Are you interested in improving your writing and editing skills in fun and creative ways?
Need a jumpstart for your creativity?
It doesn’t matter if you’re currently writing or if you haven’t written anything creative since school. This course is for everyone.
The writing and editing skills we’ll use to write compelling flash are transferable and will help tighten and sharpen every other form of writing.
I have twenty years teaching experience and a Bachelor of Education from Uni London. You’re in good hands and I’d love to write with you.
