At Margaret South’s upcoming events, you’ll find a space designed for writers at every stage of their journey—whether you’re just beginning to explore storytelling, polishing a manuscript, or seeking a creative community to support your growth. Writing doesn’t have to be a solitary pursuit, and these carefully curated programs bring together guidance, inspiration, and practical tools to help you take the next step.

Memoir Writing 

For those who dream of sharing their life story, our memoir writing classes provide a supportive environment where personal experiences are transformed into meaningful narratives. You’ll learn how to shape memory into story, giving your words both honesty and structure.

Non Fiction Writing

If nonfiction is your passion, you’ll discover opportunities to explore best non fiction writing courses and non fiction book writing course options designed to help you find your unique voice while organizing ideas with clarity and impact. These workshops focus on both craft and confidence, guiding you from concept to finished draft.

Writers of fiction are equally at home here. Whether you’re polishing a novel or exploring new ideas, our online fiction writing classes offer the flexibility to learn from anywhere while benefiting from the insight of experienced instructors. And if you’ve been stuck on a screenplay, Margaret offers guidance tailored to help you finally “fix my screenplay” with hands-on feedback and practical solutions that move your project forward.

Writing Classes for Kids

For families, creative learning starts young. We’re proud to offer kids writing classes near me and writing classes for kids that spark imagination while building essential storytelling skills. These sessions help children discover the joy of writing while developing their confidence in self-expression.

Private Writing Coach/ Consultation

Sometimes, one-on-one support makes all the difference. That’s why we also offer opportunities to work with a private writing coach—perfect for those who prefer personalized guidance, accountability, and encouragement to help bring their projects to life.

Writing Retreats

Beyond the classroom, writing thrives in community. Our writing retreats for women provide a nurturing and inspiring setting where participants can step away from daily responsibilities, immerse themselves in creativity, and connect deeply with other writers. These retreats are designed to be restorative and motivating, offering time and space to focus on your craft while building lasting friendships.

Margaret South’s teaching style combines warmth, encouragement, and professional insight. With her experience guiding writers in many forms—from screenplays to novels, memoirs to children’s stories—she understands both the creative challenges and the triumphs of the writing process. Each class or retreat is designed to help you not only grow as a writer but also enjoy the journey of creating.

No matter your genre, background, or level of experience, there’s a place for you here. Explore the calendar of excellence in writing online classes and in-person gatherings to find the program that fits your needs.
