Writing a book the easy way
If you’re writing a book, would you prefer to do it the hard way or the easy way? A book is a big project and it’s not one to be taken lightly. It will take you time to write it. It will be a big part of your life for many months or more. And then…
Read MoreThe problem with running a writing retreat
It’s Sunday morning and it’s 3.30am. I wake up suddenly and it’s quiet, too quiet and the room is pitch black. The silence is occasionally interrupted by a donkey baying in the distance.
