Writers' workshops at WHC2010

From today's press release:

The World Horror Convention 2010 is excited to announce that we will be holding three different Creative Writing Workshops over the convention, to be tutored by MORT CASTLE, NANCY KILPATRICK and JO FLETCHER.

Mort Castle has been a writer for over four decades, and a writing teacher for almost as many years. He developed and edited Writing Horror for the HWA in 1997 and the expanded and revised edition, On Writing Horror, published in 2006 by Writer’s Digest. Mort will be holding two separate four-hour courses on Creative Writing.

Nancy Kilpatrick is the author of the four-book vampire series “Power of the Blood” and several other volumes featuring the Undead. She has taught various writing and editing fiction courses for twenty-two years through George Brown College in Toronto. Nancy will be teaching a four-hour course on Writing Vampire Fiction.

Jo Fletcher, has worked as an editor of fantasy, SF and horror at such major UK publishers as Headline, Mandarin and Penguin Books. She is currently Associate Publisher of Gollancz, Orion’s award-winning fantasy and science fiction imprint. Jo will be running a two-hour course on Publishing and Editing.

Places are strictly limited for individual seminars on a first-come, first-served basis. Information about fees, times and further details are available on our website along with advance registration through PayPal. Whether or not you want to attend the Workshops, you can still have any of the three tutors critique your manuscript for a small fee. Again, all the details can be found on their individual pages on the website.
