I'm a best selling novelist and experienced creative writing teacher, currently the Royal Literary Fund Fellow at the University of Bristol. I write about the craft techniques of writing on my blog www.sarahduncansblog.blogspot.com.

I hope you'll pass the details on to the group, and any other writers who might be interested. If you want further information on the course then contact me, or you'll find the details on my website www.sarahduncan.co.uk. Alternatively, if you provided an address, I could supply some leaflets about the courses.
