An evening workshop at Moo & Two, Frome

11/9/2024

Writing for renewal, resilience and transformation

Thursday 10 October, 6.30–9pm.
Moo and Two, Frome, Somerset.

Come along for a cosy, candle-lit evening of writing, guided by me, at the lovely Moo & Two. I’ve been ‘curating' some gentle but powerful writing techniques and exercises since finishing my doctoral studies in Creative Writing, and completing my practitioner training in the psychotherapy, Focusing.

Neuroscience is catching up with what writers and thinkers have always known: that writing is good for us. It calms the anxious mind, finds meaning when a personal or global narrative might seem senseless, and restores the balance of inner and outer.

Places are limited and these workshops can fill up quickly. Please email me to book and I will provide payment details.

Dotbooks, Germany

Two of my novels – Tapestry and The Silver Thread have just been re-launched in digital versions.

Dotbooks work in a different way to German trade publishers in that they pitch to the eBook retailers (with the package including covers etc) to get their support for promotions and then schedule the publication date around that.

​K.T. Fitzpatrick discusses the experience of her novel being published in audio before print.

The setting for my new novel had been brooding in my imagination for a while: Black Mountain, a pile of granite boulders in northern Queensland, Australia, with an eerie reputation. There have been several unexplained disappearances at Black Mountain, dating from the late 1800s.

I set the novel in 1919, with a British protagonist, Eva Willoughby. Eva escapes a violent marriage in Oxford, England, and arrives in far northern Queensland to stay with a childhood friend on a cattle station. She takes a secretarial job at a constabulary near Black Mountain, and becomes a kind of accidental detective when someone she knows disappears.

Curative Writing

Picture
​Kylie's next Curative Writing course will be held on the beautiful island of Skyros, Greece.
21 – 28 July 2024.
The Curative Writing course is a series of unique practices designed to take us beneath the noisy mind to that quiet, endlessly creative place within, that is always available to us: we need only to know the way there. Writing of any kind is a portal to the inner, which can be neglected in our complex, messy, and richly layered lives. Writers have always been drawn to this place of wonder within: where stories are made; where our own voice of wisdom can be heard with absolute clarity.
What's included?

The course will be held at the Skyros Centre on Skyros island in Greece and is part of a wide range of courses and activities available. The holiday includes half board, twin shared accommodation in the village. Single upgrades are available.

Chat through the website, skyros.com
 or email [email protected] to discuss your requirements. ​
