Useful Information :
Skyros holidays offers 10 day creative writing courses in Skyros, Greece, and weekend writing courses on the Isle of wight.
The Writers’ Lab in Skyros island, Greece, offers writers, thinkers and dabblers the opportunity to learn from distinguished writers, share the joys and struggles of the creative process, discover their strengths and polish their skills.
In an idyllic environment, far away from the demands and routines dictated by a busy life, course participants can navigate beyond old boundaries and emerge with pieces of writing of which to feel proud.
Courses are open to novices with a secret passion for writing as much as to writers who already have a book under their belt. The tutors enjoy helping people at any stage of development – so do come with work in progress or just an empty page.
The Skyros Writers’Lab has built up an excellent reputation over the years. Steven Berkoff, Rachel Billington, Margaret Drabble, Hanif Kureishi, D M Thomas, Sue Townsend, Marina Warner, Hugo Williams and many others, including Booker and Pulitzer Prize winners such as Hilary Mantel, James Kelman, Barry Unsworth, Bernice Rubens and Alison Lurie, have graced the centre with their presence over the years and given hundreds of people the benefit of their experience.
Alternatively, we offer some fantastic weekends courses at our beautiful Guest house on the Isle of Wight, The Grange by the Sea. It's an ideal way to immerse yourself in all we have to offer - and I haven't even mentioned the delicious food! You'll have fun trying something new, meet interesting people and possibly return home with new talents you never knew you had!
