On Wednesday nights, I act as a support worker on a Creative Writing and Self Publishing course, at Central College, Nottingham. This is a related part of our Brilliant Books programme.
It's the third course we have delivered and there are some excellent first time authors attending.
The objective of the ten week programme is to produce an e-anthology of their work from scratch.
The first six weeks comprises of a very standard, very basic, Creative Writing course. The last four is about e-publishing.

It's the third course we have delivered and there are some excellent first time authors attending.
The objective of the ten week programme is to produce an e-anthology of their work from scratch.
The first six weeks comprises of a very standard, very basic, Creative Writing course. The last four is about e-publishing.
On Wednesday 13th, the work is completed. The anthology is called
and is published in association with Green Wizard.
There are some excellent stories, poems, satires and skit from an author group with a diverse range of interests.
The group decided the title and they will decide the price on Wednesday evening, as it will be available for sale.
The group have decided that any profits will go to charity and that charity will be Water Aid - and after the disaster in Nepal, it seems an appropriate one.
If you don't feel that you can purchase the e-book, then could you help us to spread the word and "follow" the authors contained herein?
Using Twitter/Social Media is part of the programme. I will hashtag the new author handles and include them in my stream for a few days.
Naturally, they will reciprocate with RTs etc (also part of the training).
We have a new course starting in June as this is an ongoing programme. Thanks for any support in advance.
