Space going on London workshop with author/agent

Any London or UK based writers out there who fancy a space on a workshop with published YA author Sara Grant and her agent, Jenny Savill?  I booked a slot and can't go anymore, so my space is up for grabs. It is Sat June 15th and was £65. Would be great to get all / some of the cost back but also I'd hate for the space to go to waste.

All the details are here but basically it involves a day in blackheath, an in depth workshop on critique from Sara and ten minutes with her agent looking over your cover letter, pitch and synopsis. It's a great opportunity. There's a Nov date too and I could probably ask to transfer it to that if that was better.

If anybody is interested please let me know asap and certainly let me know you are considering it by the end of the week. Feel free to drop me an email (viklitblog@gmail.com) or comment here.

  10. I'd love that but you must let Nancy have it on account of being her birthday and all! Plus, the day sounds wonderful and I'm sure you'd get a lot out of it, YA writer or otherwise, but as I'm not writing YA or children's literature, it would be better suited to somebody who was, with Jenny specialising in this. Thanks for the offer though and yes, what ARE you doing instead??
