On 18 and 19 November Ben will be running a weekend seminar with The Reader Berlin on Advanced Fiction. Covering both long- and short-fiction, the session will focus on discussions, practical exercises and prompts to help you hone your sentences, develop character and iron out the bumps in your writing. The seminar will cover tricky skills from using research, building character, maintaining tension and pulling off endings, as well as different approaches to ruthlessly editing your texts.

All writers are welcome. You’ll get the most out of this seminar, though, if you’ve already attended at least one creative writing workshop or course or have already attempted some fiction, whether in novel or short-story form.
