New Writing South
A little help in getting to where you want to be
WriterGuide is a new professional development service from New Writing South that enables you to invest in yourself. It helps you to look at where you are, define your goals and ambitions and then plan a route to fulfilling them. It’s like a one-to-one sat nav for writers!
Our WriterGuide sessions will offer a safe, yet challenging, space for you to pause and look at your career with the help of an objective, completely impartial guide. It’s a structured process that’s all about focusing on you, your career and your professional development.
- reflect on what you achieved so far
- examine your goals, interests and choices
- discuss what you want to achieve, and when
- identify obstacles and achieve clarity to work through them
- regain and maintain self-confidence
- create a plan of action to achieve your goals
How it works:
- once you have booked a WriterGuide you will be contacted within seven days to arrange a date for your session.
- prior to your session you will be sent a questionnaire to complete. This allows your guide to learn something about you before you both meet. You will also be sent a WriterGuide agreement and policy.
- your session with your guide will last up to 90 minutes.
- shortly after the session your guide will forward any information promised during your session and you will be asked to complete
an evaluation of the process.
- some months after the session your guide will contact you one last time for an update on your journey.
