Welcome to Inspire in Bristol

Tuesdays 7-9pm

19 Sept – Nov 7 (no workshops 17 & 24 Oct)

Book now for Inspire  our second-level six-week creative writing course. Inspire is the follow-on course for our entry-level course, Ignite. But you are very welcome if you haven’t completed Ignite too.

If you’ve written a short story or had a go at a novel, or have just an idea and want constructive feedback in a supportive group of writers, then Inspire is for you.

Don’t worry if you only have a scrap of writing or an idea, you’re very welcome whatever stage you’re at and there is no pressure to share.

This six-week course offers weekly critique workshops as well as sessions on advanced writing techniques such as: modes of narration; pace; plotting a novel; editing; how to strengthen your regular writing practice; and how to read like a writer. The course includes a Q&A session with a literary agent or published author as well as sure-fire strategies on how to maintain motivation once the course is over.

Come and join us and take part in the Write Like a Grrrl magic! With Inspire, you’ll be part of a supportive, encouraging community and join hundreds of graduates who now write regularly with more confidence and enjoyment.
