“Creativity is something you are, not only something you do.” Rick Rubin, founder of Def Jam Records The Creative Act: A Way of Being (Penguin Press: New York, 2023) Showing up on the page: for your writing, and for yourself Over the years of sustaining a creative writing practice myself while mentoring and coaching writers, I’ve come to a similar conclusion: namely, how we are in the world is how we show up on the page. But what does that mean in practical terms? Is it possible to learn how to improve your writing skills, not just to sustain but to transform your entire creative practice ..read more

In this month’s TLC Blog, writer Juliana Amaa explores the joy of exploring the written word. This blog is about celebrating the importance of reading and the joys of being fascinated by books. Each page turns a story into a life. Modern times are making it easier to change the way in which people engage with learning resources in order to retain information taught to them through the appreciation of books. The value of literature and the act of reading produce an intimate relationship between the reader and the text held in their hands.

Co-creating a programme for writers, with writers

In the summer of 2019, the novelist Julia Forster and I met at the Free Word Centre in London with an idea for a writing community with a difference. For years, I had been concerned with a trend towards pushing author services with the promise of getting writers published.

Where were the spaces for writers who weren’t sure what they wanted yet, who wanted to understand their options, mig ..read more

Is rejection black and white (or something in-between)? A personal experience

Writer Sara Jane Potter talks about the long journey to publication, and asks if the publishing industry has a diversity problem. I’ve been writing forever. Penning novels for intended publication for almost thirty years. At the start of each year I make myself a promise. This year I will be published. But years become decades and my mantra somewhat worn. You’d be forgiven for thinking I’m a crap writer who really should give it up now. But the evidence tells another story. Since the nineties, I’ve amassed three complete and five in-progress novels. I’ve had dazzling feedback from literary age ..read more
