About

Learn how to write fiction that makes people laugh out loud. Led by award winning novelist Kate Davies, whose debut, In at the Deep End, was shortlisted for the Bollinger Everyman Wodehouse Prize for comic fiction.

You'll explore why humour matters in fiction, how writers use comedy in their work, the technical aspects of writing jokes, and take part in hands-on exercises to craft your own comic scenes.

Whether you're just starting out or looking to explore a new style, this is a great place to begin.
