I had not shared my writing before, but Kate & Pippa facilitated a space where it felt comfortable. I received great feedback that has given me the confidence to continue writing and hopefully share my work with a wider audience. I found the experience wonderful and would recommend it to anyone starting their writing journey or just looking to hone the craft.

I love Pippa’s mentored critique group. Her prompts are so inspiring and really fruitful – and she has such a clever and lovely way of encouraging us. Each week I have written something that, in some form, will end up in my book.

Pippa just really knows her stuff. Her energy, enthusiasm and deep knowledge of both writing craft and technique and also the ins and outs of the industry make her sessions dynamic and inspiring.

Kate is a clever and kind facilitator who includes everyone and keeps the pace, and can evoke and stimulate people to be their best creative selves.  I love it.

I joined this wonderfully supportive and inclusive group, struggling to find the time and momentum to write. Now, I AM a writer, thanks to Kate and her help and prompts.
