Write the stories only you can write in this class.

Tap into your creativity by responding to weekly writing prompts in class, underpinned by writing craft advice.

The approach here is to learn through practice. Each week you will receive different themes in advance and write in class. You will share work and give feedback to one another.

Quotes from former students from Grace’s classes at Ilminster Arts Centre in 2024:
I wish I’d done this years ago.
You are an amazing teacher. I so enjoy class. and love the challenges (not the right word really) that you put out there for us. reading snippets of stories and asking what comes next do you think, or 'where would you take this'. and working in pairs is a brilliant part of this.
