News - Learn Crime Writing in Cornwall
University College Falmouth press release
If you have a passion for whodunnits and an instinct for detection that would rival that of Inspector Morse, then University College Falmouth's Summer School in Crime Writing could be just what you are looking for.
With expert tuition from bestselling author, Rosemary Aitken, you can not only learn the key elements of crime fiction but also learn how to work them into stories that brim with tension and suspense.
Rosemary Aitken is the author of over twenty published novels including the ten historical crime novels in the Libertus series, published by Severn House Publishers, under her pseudonym, Rosemary Rowe. Rosemary is also a leading academic who has written many bestselling textbooks on English language and communication, and has a wealth of teaching experience to her credit - who better then to teach the craft of crime writing?
The Crime Writing Summer School will take place from Monday 11 to Friday 15 August 2008 at University College Falmouth's subtropical garden campus in the heart of West Cornwall, a stone's throw from the historic harbour and sandy beaches - where better to find inspiration for setting, character and plot?
From creating compelling characters, building suspense and hiding clues to sustaining plots and controlling the style and pace of narrative, the Crime Writing Summer School will also show you how best to present your manuscript to agents and publishers.
