An insight into the different routes to achieving your writing goals, and the local organisations and people who can help you.

Hannah Hoare and Elaine Cusack are officers of the Business & IP Centre North East, helping local businesses in the northeast to thrive through support, data and funding. Along the way they’ve supported many writers: one of their favourite things to do, since they’re also writers themselves.

Come along for some insight into the different routes to achieving your writing goals, and the local organisations and people who can help you along the way. Hannah and Elaine will be joined by a panel of local authors and independent publishers from across the northeast, who will be sharing their experience and advice, and answering your questions.

The panel of speakers includes:

Glenda Young, bestselling author of northeast sagas and Scarborough cosy crimes and award winning short story writer

Crear Publishing, independent publishing business based in County Durham

Mirabel Lavelle, local children’s author of ‘Zeb, Jet and the Ice-Cream Calamity

Eleanor Baggaley, author, book coach and publisher

Jackie Wilson, BIPC marketing and storytelling expert-in-residence

There will also be the opportunity for networking afterwards.
