Welcome to learnwriting.co.uk
Self expression can help you understand the society and the world around you and your own response to it, but as a writer, are you saying what you really want to say?
Whether you are writing for page or screen, can you reach the emotional heart of your story and really connect with your audience? Are you writing for the right market? Why does language matter? Do you want to develop your ideas even further? Can you pinpoint the theme and the deep structure of your narrative? Why do your characters do what they do? Does your story start in the right place? Is the ending strong enough?
Teaching writing, I am constantly in touch with people of all ages who have wonderful stories to tell, full of magical characters that they want to bring to life, and fresh innovative plots with plenty of complicated twists and turns.
The challenge is to capture all that creativity and make the story work. With practical help and advice, stories that are flawed can be fixed and writing that is good can be improved. Learning the craft and techniques of writing will empower you to work towards the realisation of your dream.
