WRITING COURSE

This course is run by my stepsister Philippa Pride. If there is a book in you, she’ll get it out and published.

I have created a very special writing course that combines inspirational exercises for getting into the writing flow with advice for structuring your book and professional tips for getting published.

The course is set in the beautiful Lycian region of Turkey, in the pine forests above the Turquoise coast. The setting is glorious and inspirational, particularly in the Spring; participants find that their writing flourishes when away from their everyday tasks and I can create an environment where groups can bond and learn from one another. The value is also excellent and it means that within the course price, we can include the accommodation and food.

HOW TO FREE YOUR CREATIVITY, WRITE A BOOK AND GET IT PUBLISHED will give you everything you need for the next step of your writing journey, whether you are just starting out or a published writer. It will cover questions such as: ‘How do I get started, overcome block and find time to write?’ ‘Do I need an agent?’ and ‘What are publishers looking for?’

With experience as a commissioning editor with one of the major published houses. I have worked with some of the most successful writers today, including world superseller Stephen King and No. 1 bestseller Mike Gayle. (‘I have worked with Phil Pride for upwards of twenty years and I know of no-one in the writing and publishing business who is better equipped to talk about and teach the art and craft of writing’ – Stephen King, author of On Writing and The Shawshank Redemption). I am also a qualifed NLP Life and Executive Coach.

I have really enjoyed running this course in Huzur Vadisi (www.huzurvadisi.com) because the participants have been wonderful and have got so much out of the week away:

‘Philippa has a true talent for unlocking the hidden writer within you. Her unique approach means that you are sure to leave feeling truly inspired’ – Sabiha, former participant

‘The course was fantastic: packed with wonderful insights and amazing exercises which were a joy to complete’ – Jo, former participant

Do please come or pass this message on to any of your friends who are thinking about writing a book, need to kick start their book (again) or just want time away to write, lie in hammocks, swim in a stone swimming pool, and walk in the pine forests.
