WRITE Festival: How to Get Away with (writing about) Murder with Robert Scragg

*Booking required

You've got an idea for book, but how do you turn it from something that's no more than a few sentences long, into a full blown novel?

Amongst other things, this workshop will look at the art of plotting versus flying by the seat of your pants. You'll also look at how to create the ideal cast of characters to make your story come to life.

For more information and to book tickets see: How to Get Away with (writing about) Murder.

£5 per person. Suitable for ages 16+.
