Introductory crime fiction course

A 4-week beginners creative writing class over Zoom in crime fiction writing. In the course (1.5 hours to be delivered weekly), I cover how to build a cast of convincing characters we care about, structure and plot, the importance of setting, pacing, suspense and dialogue. And more besides. This course includes tips on how to get published taken from my own experience.

Bring your questions to the webinar for a live Q&A session.

Cost: £240 (1-1) or £50 for a group class of at least 4 (group work coming soon!)


Advanced crime fiction course

This is a 1-1 personalised service delivered over Zoom (1.5 hours to be delivered weekly) where I develop a 4-week course to suit your individual needs. Whether you have written three chapters or a whole manuscript, I will read and critique extracts of your work and together we will decide where our focus should lie. Past students have needed help in furthering characterisation, developing an overarching plot and using the senses more to bring their writing alive. This has proved an extremely popular course!

Cost: £300


Submission package

I offer an affordable but detailed manuscript critique on the first 5,000 words of your novel, help with your submission letter and synopsis.

Cost: £125
