Stuck with a story or novel chapter? This is an opportunity to receive individual feedback from both tutors on one draft story or novel chapter and to make a work in progress a working story/chapter. As light relief, we’ll offer ice-breakers and readings.

Submission of a short piece of work beforehand is invited. Both tutors will provide feedback on your work.
