Writing Realistic Illness and Injuries

Does your story feature a character with a disability or illness, or someone who sustains an injury? Are you writing about a doctor or healthcare worker? 

This interactive workshop with Dr Tanya Scott explores writing about illness, injuries and healthcare realistically and respectfully. There is a mix of information provided, along with individual writing exercises and group discussion. Learn from a published author with real medical experience and approach your writing with confidence and authenticity.
