Places open for LWC non
fiction workshop on November 3
Book now for a place on our
November non fiction workshop
Date: 3 November,

Are you writing a memoir?
Are you an expert in your
field and want to reach a new audience?
Do you have a passion you
want to write about?

have an idea which could turn into a non-fiction book?
Work on and refine your pitch with literary agents and
founders of London Writers' Club, Kirsty McLachlan of David Godwin
Associates Ltd. and Jacq Burns.
- Learn
what makes a great non-fiction proposal and what agents expect to
see in a winning proposal

strength of your concept and idea
- Understand
how to show that only you can write this book - and to understand
the power of back-story to position yourself as that author/
expert.
- Be clear
about your next steps
- Find the
perfect title and subtitle for your book
With support, hands-on advice and top tips from two agents
during the day you'll finish the day with a clear idea of your next
