Immersive Summer Schools

Every year during the summer holidays we run several two-day immersive summer schools on Zoom, where in a group of fellow writers you can work with four of our tutors on a chosen theme, via sample texts, discussions, writing exercises and sharing.

These productive, relaxed and friendly days are designed to free up and inspire your creative writing. You'll experiment with fiction, life writing and poetry. Fresh ideas and exciting pieces of work always emerge,
and you should come away with an array of new avenues to explore.

Live and interactive on Zoom with max 12 participants

Cost, £115

All levels are welcome. To register your interest please email contact@writingroom.org.uk
