Booker-nominated M J Hyland - Fiction Masterclass

I am contacting writing groups to let them know about a great opportunity to work with Booker-nominated author- M J Hyland, who will be in Cambridge at the end of the month for the Festival of Ideas. She will then run a small writing workshop at a special festival rate. We currently have a couple of spaces available and are looking for keen writers to join the class - details below. I'd be most grateful if you could share this with your members. Writers working on short stories or novels are all welcome. 
Many thanks and best wishes,

Inspiring and transformative workshop that will bring out your very best writing. Each writer will have 2,500 words of their fiction reviewed, work-shopped and edited by M J Hyland.

You'll find out how to write compelling fiction: how to begin, how to structure, how to build a story, how to create a strong narrative, how to write memorable and credible characters, how to write plausible dialogue, how to cure writers' block, and much more. The atmosphere will be fun and energetic, with plenty of in-class writing exercises. There will also be  practical advice to help writers polish and hone their work to publication standard.
