About this item

About Katie Lowe:

Katie Lowe is a commercially published novelist whose debut, The Furies, was the subject of six-figure deals in the UK and the US, and was published in eight languages in translation. Her second novel, The Murder of Graham Catton (titled Posession in the US) is set to follow in June 2021.

What you will win:

For a six-month period starting in September 2021, I'm offering a monthly one hour Zoom call to discuss your work-in-progress. After reading through your initial manuscript, plot summary, or whatever you’re starting with prior to the first meeting, subsequent sessions will focus on developing your novel from my perspective as both a commercially published novelist, and an avid reader of fiction. Prior to each monthly meeting, I'll ask you to send up to 50 pages of new work or equivalent in advance (at least one week beforehand) so that I can read and review, with our session together functioning as a conversational critiquing session – as well as a place for you to chat through new ideas, and what to do once your WIP is complete. While there’s no restriction on this (I’m an avid and omnivorous reader), I’d advise that the bulk of my expertise lies in adult fiction. I wouldn’t recommend myself as a mentor for writers of children’s books, poetry, graphic novels or erotica – so while I can say that (if you win) I will do my level best to advise, I can’t guarantee your investment will be worthwhile!

PLEASE NOTE THIS WILL NOT BEGIN UNTIL SEPTEMBER 2021
