Sunday Masterclass: LISTENING FOR HIDDEN HISTORIES, WRITING FOR ADULTS

Whose stories do we get to hear in historical fiction? How do we flip the narrative to open up space to hear a more diverse range of voices? Using a rich range of archival material to inspire, this workshop explores techniques to develop unique character perspectives and voices for compelling historical fiction for adults. Zoom delivery, cost £25
