- About Me
- I have previously published non-fiction in magazines. However, my true passion is writing for children and I have just complete studying an MA in Writing for Children at Winchester University.
For my 'day job' I coach writers to increase creativity and motivation and I write a motivation column for Mslexia.
I am also SCBWI South East Regional Coordinator.

Susan K Franklin said… - Hi Bekki,
I'm still trying to work this thing out, but can't quite suss everything yet. I was going to post on the retreat thread, but seemed to lose it. I'm off now to try again. Hope all went well and you managed to get lots of writing done. I'm sad to have missed it.

Lauren Sabel said… - Winchester is a little too far away, I suppose. But it sounds like so much fun! (and hard work, I know.) Perhaps I'll look around London more, for individual writing for children classes. Do you know anyone who does that?
