Writing Courses
6-week Courses
As well as teaching at Faber Academy in London and NCW in Norwich, Camilla also teaches regular 6-week Introduction to Memoir courses in and around Norfolk.
Camilla teaches 6-week in-person courses in memoir/life writing for beginners and experienced writers. Each week blends close reading, reflection, and expansive guided writing prompts to uncover and delve into the important stories of your life. We will also explore themes of voice, tone, dialogue and plot, to find the sweet spot in your writing. By the end of the 6 weeks, you'll have completed at least 2,000 words of prose and gained new tools and ideas to continue writing.
The next in-person creative writing workshop will take place in May 2026 at West Acre Theatre in Norfolk.
To book your place, contact Camilla.

Writers Feedback
"This course changed my life! I realise that sounds dramatic, but it did. When I signed up for your 6-week course, I had lost a bit of spark (oh, the joys of the menopause!) The course was just what I needed. It was inspiring, and Camilla's approach to teaching was so expansive and encouraging. The memoir I am working on began on Camilla's 6-week writing course. She's had a very real impact on me and my writing."
"Mentoring with Camilla has been a complete eye-opener. I am learning so much. She pulls out the details of my work and teases out more of me in my writing. I'm not sure how she manages to do it, but she does!"
"I loved the course! Camilla's classes are so well-structured. With her sharp eye and detailed feedback, she made me see the potential of my writing. I've transformed from someone who wants to be a writer into someone who actually writes, and I love it!"
"Camilla is a brilliant teacher. She's a natural. I absolutely loved this course."
