ServicesWorkshopsI have successfully facilitated my "Writing Short Fiction" workshop in the All-Trust Centre and the Mermaid Arts Centre in Bray and thanks to popular demand I hope to schedule in more soon in various locations. I am also available for hire if you would like me to facilitate this workshop for your organisation - please contact me using the Feedback form if you wish to query further - I would be happy to hear from you! In workshops, timed exercises and discussion are used to stimulate the “writer brain” and get you into the zone. The idea is to write with awareness but also with joy. The aim is create a space that is safe, enjoyable and stimulating for everyone. As someone who has worked in creative writing workshops in the volunteer sector, I know that often the most important thing for a facilitator to be aware of is when to stand back and let the creative process take hold. CritiquesI provide detailed feedback for your fiction at a rate of €20 for the first 6,000 words (maximum 2 short stories), €40 for 6,000 to 15,000 words (maximum 3 short stories), €60 for 15,000 to 22,000 words, €80 for 22,000 words plus.

Online TutorialsI can also provide a one-hour interactive tutorial for the €20 rate above.
