than I did on my degree and postgraduate courses.”

LLOYD ROBSON has been employed as a teaching artist (creative writing) and writer's mentor since 1997. He has supported writers of fiction (short story and novel), nonfiction (autobiography, biography, features, reportage and travel) and poetry (especially the musicality of language, open-field structures and prose-poetry). Whatever your levels of ability and ambition, LLOYD can challenge, encourage and reassure you, and help you get the best out of your writing.

“Lloyd Robson has run creative writing workshops at Parc Prison on several occasions... He clearly believes that writing and creativity can be a positive force for anyone, whatever their background and disadvantages in life... I have no reservation in recommending Lloyd and his work to anyone seeking to employ a significant poet and prose craftsman in contemporary idioms. He will rise to any situation and deliver.”
