Liz Hedgecock grew up in London, England, did an English degree, and then took forever to start writing. After several years working in the National Health Service, some short stories crept into the world. A few even won prizes. Then the stories started to grow longer… Now Liz travels between the nineteenth and twenty-first centuries, murdering people. To be fair, she does usually clean up after herself. Liz’s reimaginings of Sherlock Holmes, her Pippa Parker cozy mystery series, and her co-written Caster & Fleet Victorian mystery series are available in ebook and paperback. Liz lives in Cheshire with her husband and two sons, and when she’s not writing or child-wrangling you can usually find her reading, messing about on Twitter, or cooing over stuff in museums and art galleries. That’s her story, anyway, and she’s sticking to it.

I have a background in training (I lectured in English briefly, then moved into NHS training before starting to write) and have also delivered talks to children and adults, a writing workshop for children, and short readings as part of those.

I would be happy to deliver the following: – A writing workshop for primary school children – A general talk/Q&A for children or adults (with or without a book reading) – A session for adults on getting started in self-publishing, writing (and finishing) a novel, writing a mystery, or creating a character arc for their protagonist I can bring paperbacks if required.

If delivering a workshop requiring preparation, I would charge £15 per hour of the workshop (including any materials such as worksheets). For an author talk/Q&A type event I would charge £10 per hour of the event.

I would require travel expenses from Lymm; either reimbursement of public transport expenses or a mileage rate of 11p per mile.
