Writing Your Novel with Emily Bullock

For those just setting out on the journey and those already developing work, these workshops will look at ways to find inspiration and develop ideas, discussion of some popular genres, editing tips, and submission routes. Along the way there will be sharing of work produced in the workshops; these exercises will include experiments with point of view, ways of developing characters, writing to evoke time and place, and techniques for dealing with those difficult scenes.

Emily Bullock’s debut novel, The Longest Fight, was shortlisted for the Cross Sports Book Awards. Her second novel Inside the Beautiful Inside was published in 2020, and her collection of short stories, Human Terrain, was longlisted for the Edge Hill Prize 2022.  She won the Bristol Short Story Prize with her story My Girl, which was also broadcast on BBC Radio
