Description
About your tutor, Janice Marriott
After years spent writing fiction, plays, memoirs, gardening books and newspaper columns, I became a grandmother, a very involved grandmother. Now life is a discontinuous narrative. Time for writing is unpredictable and starts with clearing clutter off the dining room table. Increasingly, I spend my non-family time teaching others what I have learnt about writing and the publishing industry. And in my own writing life I have turned to poetry to express my new self. I think of the poems as small wild animals I have captured for a few moments in my hands and then released.
I continue to write for children and articles for magazines. My most recent book, Grandparents Talk, is based on a series of interviews and was published by David Bateman Ltd, examining the role of grandparents in our diverse and busy society.
