imagine, create, inspire

The Writing Tree is here to help you to write.

We believe writing is a great way to express yourself, enjoy yourself and share your ideas. We’d like to support you with inspiration, information and, if you need it, a bit of encouragement.

We love stories. Let us help you tell yours.

I was so pleased to see the Writing Tree offering courses. I did two of the summer school mini-courses and enjoyed them both – they were friendly, no-pressure and got me back to writing after several years of writing block! Would definitely recomment.

I took a Writing Tree course through my local online writing group, and then came to Helen for mentoring. I have Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Helen was very understanding and accomodating of my disability, and helped me to work out new writing habits that worked with my variable energy. She always seems to have fresh ideas to help when I’m stuck! The session was about character work which my group thoroughly enjoyed. If I had to sum up the Writing Tree I’d say ‘infectious enthusiasm’ and ‘highly knowledgeable’!
