'FEEDING THE PLOT' with Gerard Woodward

at Mr B's Emporium of Reading Delights, Bath
A two hour hands-on workshop on developing tension and creating surprises in your novel
Gerard Woodward is an award winning novelist and poet. His first collection of poems, 'Householder' was published in 1991 and won the Somerset Maugham award, his novel 'August' was listed for the Whitbread Book Awards and 'I'll go to bed at noon' (2004) for the Man Booker prize. For a full list of his novels google him!
He is a regular reviewer for the TLS, The Guardian and the Daily Telegraph and is Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature. As well as being a regular tutor at the Arvon Foundation Gerard teaches creative writing at Bath Spa University. Gerard’s book of short stories 'Caravan Thieves' published by Chatto & Windus has been described as moving from the mundane to the surreal (The Observer) and we particularly loved the element of suprise in the stories.

It may be that you are a member of a writing group or a beginner and would like encouragement and advice, or perhaps you have already written short stories or poems or are working on a novel and would enjoy meeting other writers to share your experience and learn how to get published.
