When: Saturday 18th June, 10.30am-4.00pm

Where: The Newsroom, The Guardian 60 Farringdon Road, London EC1R
3GA

Cost: £85.00

A day of two intensive workshops:

Travel Writing – How to do it and how not to with Dea Birkett, the
Guardian's Travelling with Kids 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 are followed by 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.
