Creative Writing Holiday

Next date: 6-13 September

If you're looking for a creative writing holiday, then look no further. A writing holiday can be the best of all worlds: time away from your daily life to refresh your soul somewhere beautiful, learning terrific skills, and having fun and laughter too.

What we're offering is a creative writing holiday with a difference. Actually, with a number of differences.

The first difference in this writing holiday is that it's an authentic Greek village, away from the tourist traps. Our hosts will be Tove (who's from Norway originally) and Christos, her Greek husband, and they're famous for the warmth of their welcome. You'll be treated like honoured guests, not mere paying clients.

As an experienced writing tutor I'll be bringing those skills to you, along with my own unique style of fun and laughter, my ability to critique positively and gently, and my talent at explaining concepts simply and easily.

Here's what Vanessa O'Loughlin, of INKwell Writers has to say:

Tracy Culleton is an ideal facilitator for new and aspiring authors principally because she was one herself before winning the Open House/Poolbeg competition. She therefore understands the needs and aspirations as well as the mistakes made by new writers. Sympathetic, with a relaxed and easy personality, she is extremely approachable and explains the more technical areas of writing in an understandable and accessible way. Her preparation for workshops is second to none and I was very impressed with the huge effort she puts into preparing course notes and exercises. Her EFT really does work (and this from a total sceptic!) and gets participants creativity flowing, 'unblocking' often previously unrecognised areas of tension. I would recommend her highly and hope she will be available to facilitate Inkwell workshops in the future.

And here's what Torill Lauritson, participant on our course in May, had to say:

"Tracy Culleton is a very good teacher. She is very professional and has a huge knowledge in the art of writing. She taught us a lot and was very inspiring and structured in her lessons, all in an easy and humorous tone. She took a serious interest in us as writers to be, and gave us individual advice."
