One-Day Short Course: Dark and Speculative Fiction

Explore the darker reaches of the human experience from your notebook or laptop: join us for a one-day workshop which subverts the “normal” and uncovers other worlds, other realities and alternative stories.

The course will explore what dark fiction is, as well as discussing the best writing and publishing in the genre at the moment.

You’ll gain practical information about the genre and the process of writing alternative fiction, in short or full length fiction form. You’ll be advised on plot, vocabulary and how to avoid clichés. You’ll also gain valuable advice on what to do with your writing, and how to submit it for publication.
