Roseland based author Vanessa Matthews is no stranger to Roseland Online.  Our latest ‘Writers Talking’ column covers her in conversation with Sallie Eden and Sallie recently reviewed her début novel The Doctor’s Daughter for us, too.

Now Vanessa has launched a series of one-day workshops and short courses for writers.

A published author and poet, Vanessa has 20 years of writing experience across a variety of genres and is hoping to share her experience and enthusiasm with beginners and more experienced writers alike. Tickets are selling fast for the events which are being held at Truro Library and include dates in November, December and January.

Prices start from £25 per one-day workshop including lunch and refreshments and £150 for her exclusive Six Week Novelist course (booking fees apply). Early bird discounts are available.

Vanessa will also be hosting a number of three, four and five day residential writing retreats being held at inspirational venues on and around the Roseland including St Mawes and Caerhays.
