Event: Facing the Blank Page

Join us online via Zoom.us | Viewing details will be sent with your confirmation

This interactive session is designed to help you get started when you’re facing writer’s block. Led by story consultant, Hazel Marshall, it will reveal a number of tips and tricks to help get your writing flowing again.

The event will offer a valuable opportunity to flex your creative muscles and discover new approaches to filling that blank page. Who knows it may even spark an idea for that bestseller, script or documentary you’ve always wanted to write… The session is open to everyone, not just writers.

Hazel Marshall designs and delivers factual story courses for broadcasters, independent companies and individual filmmakers and has given talks on story at media festivals in the UK and around the world. She’s a story consultant on many award-winning factual series and has been a radio producer and a children’s book writer. Hazel wrote the first ever radio dramatisation of Mary Poppins for BBC Radio 4. She’s faced a blank page frequently and created this session to help people see it as an interesting challenge rather than something to dread.
