Season Manuscript Surgery with The Writer’s Practice

www.thewriterspractice.co.uk

25th October, 26th October, 1st November, 2nd November, 15th November and 16th November

The Writer’s Practice will be providing a specially reduced-price, manuscript consultation surgery for the duration of New Writing Season. If you have a novel or full-length non-fiction manuscript, radio play, screenplay, or children’s book that you would like to have looked at by a professional able to offer high quality critique and advice, and perhaps a recommendation to an agent or publisher for the right work, then don’t hesitate to take advantage.

The Writer’s Practice are: Jonathan Myerson, Henry Sutton, Amanda Brookfield, and Alan Durant. Between the four of them, they have 21 published novels, more than 90 children’s books, 31 radio plays, 28 television episodes and an Oscar nomination. In addition, they have taught at UEA, Bournemouth University, City University London, NFTS, and for the Arvon Foundation.
