Who is the tutor and what is their experience?
Graham Bartlett was Brighton and Hove Police’s Chief Superintendent, a senior homicide detective and a public order and firearms commander before becoming a bestselling crime fiction and non-fiction author. His debut non-fiction, Death Comes Knocking, written with Peter James, was a Sunday Times Top Ten bestseller. As a police procedure and crime advisor, Graham works with over 150 authors and TV writers, helping them inject authenticity into their work.
Can I meet the tutor before committing?
You can book a 20 minute one-to-one video call with Graham Bartlett for just £20, through our
course taster sessions. We know how important it is to feel comfortable and confident when committing to a writing course, so these sessions are designed to give you an insight into how you might work alongside your tutor, and whether this course is the right next step for you. If you do go on to join us on Writing Crime and Thriller Novels, this session fee will be credited towards the course cost.
Am I able to work with this tutor in other capacities?
Graham also offers
mentoring, which is a bespoke service designed to be flexible and fit with the different needs and writing stages of each author who contacts us. You could spend your mentoring hours with anything from face-to-face discussions about your ideas, to written feedback on sections of your writing, to a mixture of the two.
