A Castle in England

Pleasure contribute an @ArtsAward Summer School class for 5-9 year olds. Stories grow from characters. I always start with character, so here's a quick-fire #CreativeWriting exercise on making a character and getting them ready to send on a journey. #ArtsAwards #WritingCommunity

My #Nobrow experience is positive. Royalty breakdowns are detailed, my contracts are vetted by Writers' Guild, Nobrow are receptive to notes, pay is on time and flexible when I need. They support my wider projects in other ways too and have always been a pleasure to work with.

Excited to be running new #writing course for @TheArtw0rks Autumn programme! Learn about writing scripts for comics and graphic novels. Develop a story idea for this wonderful medium. theartworks.org.uk/autumn-wo… #comics #graphicnovels #WritingCommunity #writetip

Aiming to expand my writing skillset with some #RPGwriting by taking the @RPGWriterWrkshp course. A fantastic initiative and supportive community, driven with such passion by @ashleynhwarren. I'm working on finally getting an adventure idea down on paper! Watch this space. #ttRPG

New @Northern_Earth mag has landed! My fav source of story #inspiration. Highly recommend for #writers seeking some unusual creative writing prompts. #MondayMotivation

The Alfred Bradley Bursary Award for #radiodrama is open to 9 Nov for #writers in North of England. I'm finally putting meat on the skeleton of a radio play I wrote years ago on an @arvonfoundation retreat. Apply @bbcwritersroom: bbc.co.uk/writersroom/opport… #writingtips #amwriting

"You might be able to write it in 5 panels, but I can't draw it in 5 panels" - wise words from @thingsbydan speaking @comicartfest. #Writer-#artist relationships mean allowing the artist to properly realise the meaning of your words to get the best out of the page. #writingtips

Heading to #LICAF @comicartfest! Looking forward to a weekend of comics events and catching up with @EMNieminen about our WIP @Elamanmakicomic. Fellow comics folk, give me a shout if you're gonna be there too! #Comics #kendal
