- In 1991 I began a series of ten-week courses on the Art & Craft of Novel Writing for Falmouth/Penryn Adult Education Centre. As a result of these courses six of my former students are now published authors. Three of these authors have now acquired agents, and at the end of 2006 one has had five novels published, one has had three, and another her first. All three have new books coming out during the next twelve months and are currently working on new novels
