Arvon Residential: Fiction - The world aslant with Adam Marek and Zoe Gilbert
Mon 23 Nov 2026 to Sat 28 Nov 2026
Writers like George Saunders, Angela Carter, Karen Russell and Lucy Wood combine the fantastic with the everyday in order to explore human truths. How can you look at the world aslant and nurture the fantastic in your own writing? How can you harness your wild imagination and use it to create fiction that inspires a state of wonder in your readers?
On this course, you’ll explore tactics for generating fantastical ideas and weird conceits, then corralling them into coherent and entertaining fiction.
You’ll learn how to both surprise and enchant your reader, and find the weird in the wild world around us. You’ll take this foray into the strange alongside award-winning writers of fantastical fiction: Zoe Gilbert and Adam Marek. Through practical, fun and inspiring workshops, Zoe and Adam will encourage your imagination and help you develop your story-craft.
This course is for wonderers and writers of all levels, genres and forms.
