"I found the atmosphere very stimulating and the feedback from trainers extremely helpful and can now say that I actually have a book project going!" Klaus, Travel Writing Weekend participant
"I really enjoyed myself. Stimulating, challenging, realistic and supportive - just what I was hoping for. I thought it would be good but it was even better than expected. Doing one day is really useful but you'll get a much richer experience if you do the whole weekend. The price is incredibly good value." John, Travel Writing Weekend participant

Bloomsbury Travel Writing Masterclass
£125 for full day, including refreshments 10.30am - 4.00pm
A day you've been promising yourself - dedicated to your travel writing
Special offer: Book Workshop and Masterclass together for just £225
This is a small, practical, day-long workshop for those who have already attended a Travel Writing Workshop or who have experience of travel writing.
The tutors are travel writers Dea Birkett and Rory Maclean.
Participants will be expected to arrive with a piece of writing on which they have worked, and which they hope to improve during the course of the day. (This may be a piece you have been working on for some time, or something you have produced at an earlier Travel Writing Workshop and are looking to perfect.)
This piece of writing will be discussed by both tutors in one-on-one sessions. There will be also practical group writing exercises. The emphasis will be on fine-tuning your writing skills, so that a publication or publisher can only say 'Yes!'
To apply for a place on the Bloomsbury Travel Writing Masterclass, please fill in the form below and either pay online with PayPal or send us a cheque.
We look forward to meeting you again. In the meantime happy travelling and keep writing!
"The Masterclass was inspiring, really great. Thank you to Dea and Rory for all their advice and help." Alison, Masterclass graduate
