What you can expect from these sessions...

Welcome to this series on the basics of creative writing by Morgen Bailey.

In these free-to-view sessions, you will learn the basics of dialogue, points of view (also known as viewpoints), tenses, whether to plot your story or get an idea and run with it, and an introduction to drip-feeding information to your reader.

You will also have free access to twice-weekly live webinars:

Tuesday (6.30pm-7pm* UK time): Writing 101 - where you can ask me anything about the writing process and industry.

Thursday (6.30pm-7pm* UK time): Editing 101 - where you can ask me anything about the editing process. my day job.

*I estimate the sessions will be half an hour long but they will likely run for longer.
