At First Story we believe that writing can transform lives and that there is dignity and power in every young person’s story (rolling deadline)

We are currently looking for writers with a talent for teaching  creative writing to nurture the skills of young writers and help them  to find their own voices. 

What we’re looking for:

• Acclaimed writers, with a publication record of at least one book and/or  an established reputation as a performance poet or playwright
• At least three years’ experience teaching creative writing, preferably to  young people
• Ambassadors for the programme and for creative writing in the region
• Some editing experience is desirable but not essential

Above all, we’re looking for writers who can enthuse students and help them discover a love of writing. If this is you, please do get in touch!
