Saturday 4th March 2006, 10. 30am – 4. 00pm at the
newsroom The Guardian

60 Farringdon Rd

London EC1R 3GA

Cost: £89. 99 (inc VAT)

A day of two intensive workshops:

Travel Writing – How To Do It, and How Not To with Dea
Birkett, Guardian columnist and author of Serpent in Paradise and Off
the Beaten Track.

Fact, Fiction and Creating a Traveller’s Tale with Rory
Maclean, author of Falling for Icarus and Stalin’s Nose.

The workshops include practical writing
sessions.
Participants should bring pen and paper – they will be expected to
write! The emphasis is – whether you are a beginner or already have
some writing experience – on developing skills which can be applied to
both articles and books. Our aim is that, by the end of the
day, each
of you will have the tools to produce a publishable piece of travel
writing.
