With Sue Divin.‘The harder I work, the luckier I get.’ – Samuel Goldwyn
Is getting a traditional publication deal just about pure luck? Can you make your own luck? This course, whilst useful for all writers, is ideal for emerging prose, novel or short story writers aiming to publish their writing.
Through discussion and activities, this course aims to help writers to be purposeful, focused and active in working to breakthrough. It covers two key areas:
1. Connect, submit, compete: How to get your writing noticed.
2. Polish until it shines: How to lift your work to the next level through self-editing, mentoring and pitching.
Sue Divin is a Derry-based writer with Armagh roots. She has published two YA/crossover novels, and another is due to be published in 2026. Carnegie-shortlisted Guard Your Heart, a ‘Romeo and Juliet set in Derry 2016’, won the Great Reads Award Ireland, and Truth Be Told, ‘Parent-trap meets Derry Girls’, was shortlisted for the Irish Book Awards.
