Writing holidays and courses in Languedoc, south France |
The quiet and beauty of the Languedoc region makes it a great place to go on a writing holiday or course. A number of writing courses are offered in the region, combining daily tuition and group discussions with days out to local sightseeing spots and, of course, great food and wine.
Accommodation is usually offered with the writing courses as a complete 'package'. Most of the courses offered are run by experienced authors, and also attended by budding writings, so group discussions amongst the entire 'class' are usually very fruitful indeed. With expert guidance and a relaxed atmosphere, the creative juices are bound to start flowing!
