Heide and Iain's writing newsletter - January 2013
Published: Sat, 01/26/13
It's the first one of 2013 and we've got lots coming up this year.
Something that's new for us is the one-off Sitcom Writing Workshop
that Pigeon Park Press is hosting.
We're very excited to have a tutor who's got years of experience of
writing for the sitcoms we all know and love.

1) WHAT WE'VE BEEN UP TO
Clovenhoof 2
We've been working on the planning and we'll start writing it at the end of January.
At the moment we're doing the super-fun part of laying down lots of ideas for the
different chapters.
If you're interested in the process, why not come along to our
Collaborative Writing Workshop in Nottingham and try it for yourself?

Ten To One - Our ten-person collaborative writing project is currently recruiting.
We are looking for ten writers from far and wide to work on a novel together.
If you'd like to work with other writers to create the most original novel of
2013, go to www.pigeonparkpress.com and click on the Ten To One link.
