Feedback from previous participants:
I really enjoyed this online class. Jan led us through some fantastic exercises that helped clarify some of my ideas for a story that’s been in my head for years. She also helped us create individual writing plans that helped make the prospect of writing an entire book feel like an achievable one, no matter how much or little time you think you have to devote to writing. I found the class very inspiring and highly recommend, particularly to anyone who has ideas for a book but feels a bit lost on how to start. Emma Buckley • May 2020
A really well-paced, well-facilitated workshop with lots of practical activities incl time blocks to write and group discussion. I can’t believe how much I achieved in three short hours! Would recommend this course to anyone who needs guidance and support to put structure and planning around their writing and tips on staying engaged and creative during your project.

What an excellent class! Three hours of writing exercises which were not only practical and motivating but also fun. The small class format also enabled discussion between participants and the teacher. This class helped me to add structure to my work, to delve into the themes, characters and the vital main question of the book. Thank you Jan Cornwall for a wonderful workshop.

Have done nothing but write since I came home. For a writing sloth like me that’s amazing so thankyou. Have enough tools and confidence now to think I have a chance to be published as a proper writer.That would be the biggest tick on my bucket list. Pamela Rapson. WEA Sydney workshop.
Jan, I absolutely loved the workshop. You teach without appearing to teach and to me this is one of the most effective ways to empower others. An absolute honour to meet you. June Perkins, Mission Beach.
Jan’s workshop pulled the threads together to bind the pages and create an outline, chapters, title, ideas, dot points and a list of to do’s to create the story. The polishers – my group:(the ‘Novelle’s), supplied a soft landing forthe buttons pushed to land in a jumble and be sorted, gently swept away or saved and carefully placed for the first draft of ‘the book’.
