In this episode, we speak to novelist and NCW tutor Megan Bradbury, who gives us a wealth of great advice to help you build your writing routine. We cover a lot of ground in this discussion, the focus of which is removing mental, physical and even temporal blocks to get you writing - from tackling your own avoidance excuses to noise-cancelling headphones. Many of you will already know Megan from the podcast, and it was a pleasure to welcome her back. Megan is a long-time friend of the writing centre having won a place on Escalator - our talent development programme. Megan also won a ‘Grant for the Arts’ to help fund the completion of her first novel, Everyone is Watching. Megan is also one of our online course tutors. What online courses, I hear you say? Well, the National Centre for Writing has a variety of online learning activities from courses to mentorship sessions. Head to our website to browse free short courses, in-person classes and workshops, and our much-loved 12 and 18-week tutored online courses. These courses have been designed specifically to get you writing. https://nationalcentreforwriting.org.uk/support-for-writers/
