TUTORED RETREAT

Poetry

The key to this course is making time for your own writing but both tutors will provide close-reading of your manuscript followed by supportive editorial meetings. You may work as flexibly as you wish, but we will also provide optional writing workshops and poetry-based evening sessions to complement the experience. Please submit an initial eight poems for the tutors to read in advance of the course by 8 March. All students will have their own room.

Single room: £595
Shared room: £545
