If we don't feel that your manuscript is ready for publication, we will not offer you the developmental editing  straight away. Instead we will offer a series of six classes that we hope will enable you to do work that will be accepted onto the editorial level.

The classes will be on some of the following subjects, depending on what we feel your work would most benefit from; language use, structure, dialogue, narrative, characterisation, development, conception of ideas, the quality of your own idea, and genre.

Each class lasts one hour and can be conducted by video call, or telephone. We will assign you writing tasks between the appopinments which you can send beforehand and we will be able to comment upon your progress.

It's a crash course that will be bound to improve your work dramatically. It's not easy but it is fullfilling and revealing, and will definitely be useful.

Your teacher will be an experienced published author with an international reputation, published by Penguin and performed as a playwright in the Royal Court and the Comedie Francaise. His work is also in the House of Commons Library.

The cost for six classes is £60 each,  £360 total.
