One Day Workshops

Chawton House
Chawton
Alton, Hampshire
GU34 1SJ

This charming Elizabethan manor house was home to Jane Austen's brother, Edward. She spent part of her life in one of the cottages on his estate and often walked up to 'The Great House' to enjoy time with her family, surrounded by idyllic Hampshire countryside. Home to a unique collection of early women's writing, Chawton House hosts a variety of events of both literary and general interest.

Chawton House Virtual Creative Writing Workshops
Following the success of the Literary Lockdown and Garden Festival,  I will be hosting another series of lighthearted Zoom creative writing workshops. No experience is necessary;  all you need is a notebook and pen. Each session runs for 90 minutes and numbers are limited. £7.50 per workshop.

Turning Fact into Fiction. Saturday 30 January at 11am or Sunday 31 January at 5pm
