Brian's schedule has something for everyone; from beginner to advanced writers, and everyone in
between. The
"Welcome to Creative Writing" and
"Writing Your Life" courses
are a great place
to start. If
you have your own writing project in progress, such as short stories, memoirs,
or a novel,
you'll benefit from a "Next Step in Creative Writing" course. More experienced writers will want
an "Intensive Creative Writing" course to work on their writing projects and hone their skills.

One-day workshops that

Published are offered on
Saturdays or Sundays. A great way to spend a day with people who
share a passion
for words.
See you at a course or workshop soon!
