Donna Costello

I provide a bespoke, structured service for adults who are looking to develop their creative writing skills at either a fundamental level or for those looking to publish. No matter what level you are at I can help you move forward.

Each lesson is an hour long and we will discuss your goals and expectations at the beginning of each session to ensure we are moving in the direction and pace you require. Each session is tailored to your needs and requirements, we will work at a pace that you feel comfortable with in order to achieve your goals.

I am a qualified trainer with a Level 3 Certificate in Education & Training and over a decade of experience in training both individuals and large groups.

I have been published in Up!Work Magazine, the Paul Cave Prize for Literature and Flash Fiction North.

For over a decade I have been working with writers to hone and develop their stories, helping them to create something that they feel confident enough to submit to publishing, either online or to traditional publishers.

Through my own experiences I am aware that a traditional learning format does not always suit the student so my aim is to provide a learning experience that is tailored towards the student and helps them to grow as a writer.

I have been working with peer-to-peer writing groups for a number of years as well as providing proofreading services. I have also been a book reviewer for both Indie Reader and NetGalley, providing both paid and unpaid reviews.
