Moniack in a Month – Travel Writing with Miranda France
Tue 25 Nov 2025 to Thu 18 Dec 2025
Travel the world from your armchair. The word sums up distant and exotic locations, but “travel” need not mean physically going far. It can describe an experience of places and people close to home, one in which memory and history also play a part.

On this course you’ll learn how to look at and describe worlds both strange and familiar and how to shape what you learn into a story that others will want to read. Through texts and images, interviews, conversation and written exercises, you’ll think about different approaches to describing nature, cities, cultures and people, both for books and shorter texts. We’ll talk about truth-telling and rule-breaking, delve into the concept of the “inner journey” and find ways to weave the author’s own perspective into the narrative.

Miranda France is the author of five books, as well as a translator from Spanish and a consultant editor at the Times Literary Supplement. Her memoir The Writing School (2023), which considers events following a family tragedy in the context of a writing course, also doubles as a guide to researching and shaping creative non-fiction.
