Lesley Beake Writing Course

There is so much to write about in the world. Join me!

Join Lesley Beake at the fabulous De Hoop Collection, near the end of Africa, for an enlightening, unique writing course.

This writing course offers some fresh, original ideas about how to get the words down, get them to dance to the right tune – and possibly get them published. It will cover the down to earth basics of good writing; writing for all ages, but particularly writing for young people.

Straight from the writer’s mind and from Lesley’s own, practical experience the course is filled with ideas and inspiration from her own writing and from the books by other writers that she has loved most. Not only will it teach you how to write well, what is required to be a writer and how to approach publishing but, hopefully, it will also make you smile.

Lesley Beake's Inspiration for Books

“Books are life for me. I read them, write them and work with them pretty much all the time I am awake. My particular interest is in books for children and young people. After having published 90 titles for readers from age 4 to age 14, I now concentrate on introducing the joys of reading to children through Children’s Book Network.

We need more stories with hope, with laughter, with love. There is so much to write about in the world. Join me!” – Lesley Beake 2019.
