My Creative Non Fiction Journey- Part Three - how I signed with an agent

And how you can structure your own development

In August my landscape/nature memoir The Ghost Lake will be published. In this series I’ll lead you through my journey from tentative blogging all the way to signing a book contract with The Borough Press - a division of Harper Collins. I’ll include some tips on how you can develop your own prose.

This is a post for paid subscribers. I currently have a 10% discount sale on my annual subscription, making it just £45. This offer is available until 30th April. You might also like to know about this:my upcoming zoom course Telling Your Story.

This course will run on Friday afternoons in May 2-3.30pm UK time. It’s all about telling your story through poetry and/or creative non fiction and we’ll be looking at craft aspects alongside discussing and analysing published extracts and as if that wasn’t enough, there will be writing prompts to help you get down to writing your story. The course is five weeks, the first four weeks are workshop weeks and the final, fifth week is a group feedback session.

This course is £50 and you can book through eventbrite, but it is FREE to paid subscribers of Notes from the Margin and I have 10% off an annual subscription until April 30th. That makes it £45 for a year of courses, workshops an community. Come join me!

Oh, and if you want to join me over on instagram I’m posting some snappy little prompts throughout April for NaPoWriMo
