Local schools learn about Jessie Kesson

Every March, one writer comes to Moniack Mhor to work on their own writing and share the life of Jessie Kesson with local schools. This year, author Lorna Jane Waite led enthusiastic workshops in local primary and secondary schools that combine creative writing techniques, Jessie Kesson's work and local Gaelic influence.

Moniack Mhor Creative Writing Centre is in the beautiful Scottish Highlands, just fourteen miles from the city of Inverness. Since our first course in 1993 Moniack Mhor has been running creative writing courses tutored by some of the finest authors in the UK and beyond.

Arvon Foundation… Throughout six months of the year residential creative writing courses are run in association with the world renowned Arvon Foundation.

Previous tutors include Liz Lochead, Roger McGough, Joanne Harris, Carol Ann Duffy, Ali Smith, Bernard MacLaverty, A. L. Kennedy and Alan Bissett. Genres include novel, poetry, screenplay, crime, writing for children and many others.

Writers Retreats… Whether you are an individual, large or small group, Moniack Mhor can offer writing retreats at reduced rates. Give yourself the time and space to breathe and immerse yourself in a work in progress.

Moniack Outreach… We can organise writers to visit your school, writers group, community centre to deliver workshops or to discuss the writing process.
