1226793601 1227225601 14 book online add to wishlist November 16 - November 21 2008 from £390 Creating an imaginary world a writing course. Greg Mosse Reference: 5D 0036 Ability:Suitable for all 4039 14

There’s an old saying for fiction writers to ‘write what you know’. Just imagine if all writers did just that – a world without Carroll’s Wonderland, Tolkien’s Shire or Orwell’s version of Britain in 1984 would be a much poorer place. But world’s out there are still waiting to be discovered. This focused course gives you the opportunity to explore the worlds we know, and those yet to be discovered and develops gripping, interconnected storylines set in ‘other’ worlds, for children’s, crossover, magic, fantasy and science fiction markets. Practical advice on technique and personal editorial advice will be available throughout the course.
