At the end of the summer we welcomed Candy Gourlay as the second author in our ‘Becoming a writer' programme. Candy is the author of ‘Tall Story’ and her new book, ‘Shine’ is published in September 2013. Candy’s took the students through the ‘Hero’s journey’, which works through the narrative structure of a novel. She interspersed this with her own journey to becoming a novelist, as well as her experiences of being a newspaper correspondent in the Philippines. Her workshop was very engaging with lots of humour and was also enjoyed by Mr Hughes and Mr McIntyre.
The series returns in October with award winning author Anne Cassidy.
