Arvon Residential Writing Week: Non-Fiction with Sophy Roberts and Rory Maclean
Mon 26 Aug 2024 to Sat 31 Aug 2024
At the heart of the finest travel books, memoirs and histories is a writer’s love of their chosen subject. Join award-winning travel writers Sophy Roberts and Rory Maclean for a week to explore your passion in the inspiring environment of The Hurst.

This week gives you the perfect opportunity to explore your passion in the nurturing and inspiring environment of The Hurst. You will learn how to identify the essence of your story, and how to develop your work with a self-critical eye, to refine your voice so it is true to you.

Join award-winning travel writers Sophy Roberts and Rory Maclean as they offer detailed advice on narrative structure, character and description of place, exploring the transformation of experience — our own and others’ — into stories and books.

Through workshops, tutorials and discussions you will develop momentum with your writing that will continue to inspire you long after the week has finished.
