Sean Hannigan the Vice President Section UK IPA looking after the Cultural portfolio is pleased to announce a Writers Seminar which will take place in Gimborn between September the 17th to the 21st 2018.

This is a first for Gimborn and Section UK. The Seminar is open to any IPA member across any Section, but a stipulation is the participant has a good standard of written and spoken English.

The Seminar will be taught by four established IPA Published authors who will cover the following genres:  Crime Writing, Factual Writing, and Fictional writing and Children’s Writing. A well-known Publishing house, Red Door, will deliver part of the Seminar on publishing in general and review options open to writers. The writers will cover topics including: 

• ·How did I start writing?
• ·Where did I get my ideas?
• ·What is research and how do I do it?
• ·Plot Character and Pace
• ·Rewrites
• ·Editing
• ·Publishers and publishing
• ·Agents; how to find and keep them 

The cost of the seminar is approximately £310 which includes full board and lodging. There are only 24 places on the seminar. You do not have to have any experience of writing just the will to let your imagination run free.

A similar Writers Seminar in the UK last week at Cambridge cost £350 for the Seminar and £80 per day for food and accommodation so this is incredible value.
