How to write compelling crime fiction workshop
On Saturday 18 June between 10am and 4pm I will be running an interactive workshop on How to write compelling crime and thriller novels at Quay Arts Centre on the Isle of Wight.
I thought it a lovely way of celebrating and contributing to National Crime Writing Week an initiative organised by The Crime Writers' Association of Great Britain (CWA), of which I am a member.
During the week members of the CWA will take part in readings, discussions, readers' group events and workshops all over the country.
So if you want to know how to write crime fiction or wish to improve your crime writing skills then do come along. And it's not just for those who live on the Isle of Wight.
There are plenty of ways to travel to the lovely Isle of Wight by Wightlink car ferry from Lymington in the New Forest to Yarmouth, or from Portsmouth to Fisbourne, either with your car or as a foot passenger. Or from Southampton to Cowes on the Red Funnel ferries. The quicker routes are by Wightlink Fastcat from Portsmouth to Ryde, and by Red Jet Hi-Speed from Southampton to Cowes. There is also an excellent Hovercraft service provided by Hovertravel from Southsea to Ryde.
Why not make it a weekend break and explore some of the beautiful Isle of Wight coastline. I can guarantee it will provide you with lots of inspiration.
