Summer Courses and courses starting in the Autumn

From Caroline.

Dear All,

I have been 'speaking' with Andy McDonnell who is the course co-ordinator, for creative writing, for Adult Ed.

The 'Being a writer' which was wrongly advertised as a 'writing for children course' (dates: 11th, 12th and 13th July 2011 - 10am to 4pm) will probably not run, however Andy was prepared to discuss the possibility of changing the time to make it an evening course instead, if some of you would be interested. They need 6 people to be able to run it in any case, and at the moment only 1 person is booked on it. I am not sure if this could interest any of you as it is quite soon. If you are please let me know. I can also provide you with a course information sheet.

The  good news is that the 'Masterclass for novelists' course ,on Thursday the 14th July, which some of us are going to attend is going ahead!!

Andy has also given us a teaser for the courses coming up in the autumn. These, from what I understand, are follow-on courses to the summer ones.

However, please note that if the a summer course doesn't run due to lack of numbers, its follow-on course, in the autumn, might get drop by Adult Ed.

N.B.:The times days have yet to be confirmed. I hope that some of the literary classes might appeal to writers who are wanting to furnish there writing with a bit of extra research.

I Hope all of the above makes sense!!!
