Novelist Liz Jensen used the original Get Black on White ebook:

online writing course, literary consultancy, writing mentor
Liz Jensen – author of ‘The Ninth Life of Louis Drax’

Jacqui Lofthouse’s ‘Get Black on White’ was incredibly useful to me at a time when my writing became stuck. There’s such a clever mix of advice on inspiration and craft. But most of all it’s a practical guide that all writers – published and unpublished – should consider an essential part of their professional kit. It saved that novel’s life. – Liz Jensen, author of The Ninth Life of Louis Drax

Paola Fonseca is a client of The Writing Coach:

Paola Fonseca, Writer

A while ago someone asked me, ‘are you a writer?’ and I thought of the many pieces of paper lying around my writing desk, waiting for my perseverance to turn them into a story. Thanks to the optimistic, but insightful and authentic daily content and exercises of Get Black on White, I was able to shift my fear and jump start the engine of my story! The platform is an excellent tool that enabled me to feel guided and encouraged every day. – Paola Fonseca

Angela Gabriela Horne, writer

Because of this course, I made peace with The Muse after years of armed resistance. I now welcome the blank screen. My writing is consistent. I trust the process as my novel unfolds in richer ways never before possible. Thank you. – Angela Gabriela Horne

Denise Gow, author of ‘The Lost Madonna’

I liked the layout and the fact that you click the button to say you’ve done that part. It felt totally original… It felt as if I were in a private cave with your voice as coach and supporter. I shifted from writing a story I wasn’t enjoying – over to a different one which I did enjoy. It became an exciting and productive creative time. I haven’t finished the course yet, but I’m stretching it out at the moment, like a really good book that you don’t want to finish…. Once I opened it up properly, I soon became a new person and imperceptibly I stopped writing what I’d started and picked up something else and was filled with the excitement of completing a novella during the course. My energy picked up as I continued. After a while I was in absolute synchronicity with what was coming up and what I was doing. So, couldn’t be happier Jacqui. – Denise Gow

Posted @withregram • @ana.sefer Thanks so much t Posted @withregram • @ana.sefer Thanks so much to everyone who came to Fragile Borders, Fragile Bodies on Friday, which raised £780 for #warchild Illuminating discussion and great readings from @alicejolly_  Fran Lock, Miranda Gold and myself :) .. beautifully chaired by @jacquilofthouse 
And what a wonderful venue The Tin Tabernacle Church in Kilburn is!
We are really looking forward to tomorrow's event We are really looking forward to tomorrow's event 'Fragile Borders, Fragile Bodies', at The Tin Tabernacle church in London at 6.30pm. 

This week we wanted to introduce our guest speakers who will be joining us tomorrow, and today we'd like to introduce Ana Seferović.

Ana is a poet and writer from Belgrade, interested in the relationship between systems and the individual.  She is especially fascinated by outcasts, particularly the outcast in each and every one of us, because an outcast is where either a system or an individual (or both) are breaking. She has co-authored a radio show and art platform PornoPop, examining sex and body as a battlefield of politics, art, literature and culture.

Find out more about Ana, Fragile Borders, Fragile Bodies and book tickets via the link in our bio. All proceeds will be donated to the charity War Child @warchilduk

In addition, the Laura Kinsella Foundation has generously agreed to double any donations we receive up to a limit of £300.
