“When I signed up for The Complete Creative Writing Course many years ago I had no idea that it would be the beginning of the long path that led me to writing and publishing Leopold Blue. I learnt an enormous amount about the craft and the act of writing and met some wonderful writers who remain a huge support and source of inspiration.”
Rosie Rowell attended our original course and then the Tuesday afternoon Advanced course for many terms. Her debut novel Leopold Blue was published by Hot Key books in January 2014 and won the 2015 Branford Boase Award for an outstanding debut children’s novel. Her second novel, Almost Grace, was published by Hot Key in June 2015.
