Quick Answers
How do I join the Slow Draft workshop?
Places open each June for the autumn session — twelve writers, four weeks. Send a message through this form with the topic “Workshop places” and you will be first to hear.
Can I invite Eleanor to speak or teach?
Yes — festivals, libraries, schools, and bookshops. Write with the date, place, and audience, and allow a fortnight for a reply during drafting season.
Where should I start reading?
New readers usually begin with What I Mean When I Say Quiet, then follow with a novel — The Salt Garden is the favorite doorway.
Do you sign books by post?
Twice a year, in spring and before the holidays. Join the Monthly Letter or write in, and your request goes into the next signing pile.
