Nestled in the enchanting Jnane Tamsna hotel near Marrakech, Silk Road Slippers' writing masterclasses are revolutionizing the literary landscape. These five-day intensive workshops, led by industry veterans Alexandra Pringle, Alex von Tunzelmann, Nesrine Malik, and Faiza Khan, offer unparalleled access to literary giants like Booker Prize winners Kamila Shamsie and Shehan Karunatilaka.
Participants immerse themselves in a rigorous "book camp" featuring hands-on exercises, workshops, and one-on-one feedback. The program covers everything from conquering writer's block to navigating the publishing world. With a maximum of 14 participants per session, the intimate setting fosters creativity and builds lasting connections.
The next masterclass, featuring Alan Hollinghurst, is scheduled for March 2-7, 2025. At £3,200 per person, it's an investment in literary potential. Beyond the workshops, participants explore Marrakech's medina and enjoy botanical cocktails under starlit skies, igniting inspiration at every turn.
