Learning Zone

 On Monday 12th February I begin a 12-week online course run by the National Centre for Writing part of the University of East Anglia. The course is entitled 'Creative Writing - Non-fiction'.

I'm currently setting up my laptop to enable me to participate as smoothly as possible.

As I'm still recovering from my fractured femur surgery, I may be taking the early part of this course from my bed.
