Creative Writing Mentoring - helping you to progress in your creative life!

Are you thinking of writing but having trouble how to start? Have you started writing but seem to have blocks that are stopping you continuing what you’ve started? Or do you feel shy about sharing your creative writing and want to take the next steps? I’ve successfully helped mentor people on their journey into creative writing and in the classes we will take the journey looking at ways to help overcome obstacles that might be stopping or blocking your progresses, or helping you to continue writing you may have started. We will do this with a mixture of looking at your work and thinking of strategies to help you overcome any potential blocks. Although I have a particular interest in writing for plays, (I am a playwright and published poet), this class is for also for those wanting write creatively.

About Me

I am a published poet and playwright with a passion to help mentor those on their creative writing journey. I am especially keen to help those that want to either take the first steps in writing but don’t know how, and those that are struggling with their writing and want help looking at ways at how to overcome blocks for them to do this; I know as a writer myself that I have gone on that journey and now want to offer support to those that may be struggling. In the lessons we can first look at your writing (if you’ve written something), and discuss your ambitions and look at issues currently holding you back, and start to think about strategies and resources that could help you. As we progress, we can look in depth at things you may want to concentrate on, if that’s obstacles to writing, wanting feedback on your work or just having agreed milestones for your work for our next session, I offer ongoing support in your writing journey.

Reviews (1)

I decided to work with Ros because I had seen some of her plays and got to talk to her after a performance. I found both her work and her personality compelling and thought I could learn a lot from her to materialize my ideas and finish my draft'. In this first session, she was very personable and listened very well to where I was at with my creative work, it felt easy chatting with her about my writing. We talked about my aims as well - it felt good to find someone who took what I was wanting to do seriously! In the session we identified areas that I wanted to work on most and identified a plan for me to write for her and send for our next session. It was very helpful as it clarified my writing. The session felt great as I really felt involved in being able to get across what I wanted to concentrate on, as well as Ros helping me pinpoint what I needed - it felt really collaborative and supportive. In the second session, we worked on structure. Ros took a lot of time to go through it line by line, I was able to talk to her about my choices as well as her giving me feedback, the discussion felt respectful and responsive on both sides. Ros then gave me a few tips to help me be able to go forward about implementing what we had talked about. I loved that she was genuinely encouraging of what I was doing. It means so much to have good support!
