Writing Workshops

I am running online and offline writing workshops in London and internationally. These are both group and 1:1 sessions aimed at people who need to write about themselves and their work, develop presentation styles and appropriate authorial voice. I cover writing for the web as well as other kinds of offline writing. The workshops consist of writing exercises as well as feedback. 

Creative Coaching

As an experienced teacher, curator and mentor, I can help with unblocking, idea refinement and creative self-management. I have a bespoke Creative Coaching programme for people who wish to bring more creativity into their lives. I also coach to  unblock the creative energy for people who are already working in the Creative Arts, Arts and Humanities and academia.
