Rowan Coleman
Courses and Competitions: Guardian Masterclasses – Popular Women’s Fiction with Julie Cohen & Rowan Coleman with guest speaker, Madeleine Milburn.
There is still time to take part in this great sounding course with two very successful writers. This course is for people who are looking to originate or develop an idea, or who have been working on a novel and want to bring it to a high enough standard for submission.
It’s taking place on Saturday 25th and Sunday 26th January 2014 at The Guardian, 90 York Way, Kings Cross.
Attendees will be asked to submit a plot synopsis and five pages of the first chapter of their novel ahead of the course to enable the tutors to provide tailored feedback.
You will learn about the fundamentals of creating believable, memorable characters, irresistible plots and compelling dynamics, as well as finding an individual voice. The course will also cover how to prepare a book for submission to agents and publishers, as well as how (and when) to self-publish a novel. The weekend includes an extensive Q&A session with a leading literary agent.

by I’m Laura. I started Novel Kicks in 2009. I wanted a place to post my writing as well as give other writers like me the opportunity to do the same. There is also a monthly book club, a writing room which features writing prompts, book reviews, competitions, author interviews and guest posts.
I grew up by the sea (my favourite place in the world) and I currently live in Hampshire. I am married to Chris, have a cat named Buddy and I would love to be a writer. I’m trying to write the novel I’ve talked so much about writing if only I could stop pressing delete. I’ve loved writing since creative writing classes in primary school. I have always wanted to see my teacher Miss Sayers again and thank her for the encouragement. When not trying to write the novel or writing snippets of stories on anything I can get my hands on, I love reading, dancing like a loon and singing to myself very badly. My current obsession is Once Upon a Time and I would be happy to live with magic in the enchanted forest surrounded by all those wonderful stories provided that world also included Harry Potter. I love reading chick lit. contemporary fiction and novels with mystery.
