I am writing to you from Arvon, a literary charity renowned for our five day residential creative writing courses and retreats. Booking is now open for our 2015 programme.
Courses take place at our three historic houses in beautiful rural locations across England, in Devon, Shropshire and Yorkshire. Genres include Poetry, Fiction, Screenwriting, Playwriting and Writing for Children and Young Adults. The weeks are led by published authors including Monica Ali, Paul Muldoon, Neel Mukherjee and Helen Macdonald. Explore all 83 courses here.
Importantly, financial grants are available to support writers to come to Arvon. These are awarded on the basis of financial circumstances not writing ability. So if you'd love to spend a week writing with us but can't afford to, we may be able to help. There's information here.
If you would like to receive copies of our brochure for yourself or your writing group in the post please drop us a line at communications@arvon.org.Happy Writing! Emma and the Arvon team |
