Northumberland is the Land of Castles - so why not come build your own!
Our beautiful studio is just five minutes walk from Ford Castle, and as Northumberland is an ancient landscape peppered with castles and towers of all shapes and sizes, inspiration for your own ceramic fortifications isn't hard to find!

Ford Castle - just five minutes from the studio!
This hand-building pottery session has been designed for the young and un-young, but will require focus and concentration! You will create a castle tower using the slab-building method before adding windows, arrow slits, roofs, draw-bridges, portcullises, chimneys etc (basically whatever you fancy) in just two hours! Although simple in principle, it will involve all your creativity - but first you'll have to decide whether your castle is the setting for a medieval siege or a fairy tale! The basic method will be outlined at the start, and then it's up to you to create your castle! Once finished, your castle will stay at the studio to be fired, dip-glazed and then re-fired. If you have added windows or other openings they would make beautiful tea light holders. [But we recommend battery powered tea lights or fairly lights at the towers will get very hot with a candle in...]

These two towers have more of the fairy -tale about them...
There are only six places per session - this allows enough access to support for everyone to be successful! As this is a creative class designed to be accessible to all including younger potters, we must insist that a parent or guardian attends with any participant aged 16 or under. The numbers are limited to avoid over-crowding in the workshop. Each ticket books a maker's-seat at the pottery table. If you are going to attend as a (free) spectator, please make a note of this at the time of booking.

These two examples feel more military - one being menaced by a giant squid, the other with it's draw-bridge lowered...
If you book a place for a young person and feel they will need help in creating their castle, please come along and help them (as a non-paying spectator). Even with only six people booked in a session, it can be difficult to support everyone in the way they need. Again, please note this at the time of booking.
The ticket price covers all tuition, tools, firings and glaze for one castle tower. Please note that these pots will be glazed in just one colour - dip-glazed as you request. 
A word of warning - the kiln Gods can be fickle, and despite doing everything possible, some pieces will fail, crack or blow up (!) in the kiln. There are no guarantees in pottery, not even for seasoned potters. A second word of warning - working with pottery can be hugely addictive. You have been warned!
The New Ford Studio is housed on the ground floor of the old Reading Rooms - you will find it just up the road from Lady Waterford Hall. Nearby are many attractions and places to walk, shop and eat; how about a near by Narrow-guage Railway (that runs to Etal Castle and back), a working flour mill, a Village Shop & Tearoom, a heavy horse centre, a micro-brewery, or a Riverside cafe? 
Please note - access to the studio is only via a set of external stone steps, and there is a single toilet available on site. The booking cost (£30.00) secures a spot at the maker's table; if you need to stay to support a younger participant, please make sure you have noted this when you book your ticket!
If you need your work posting out to you or someone else, please ensure you book an additional postage and packing ticket!
And finally - There is ample free parking at Ford, at Heatherslaw and at Etal. Ravn Clay sits at the heart of the Estate, which also offers camping, glamping, B&Bs and guests houses. And there’s plenty more to do and see while you are here - 
Heatherslaw Light Railway
Etal Castle (English Heritage)
Heatherslaw Mill
Hay Farm Heavy Horse Centre
Lady Waterford Hall
Flodden Battlefield
Loads of little eateries, pubs and shops etc
Spectacular scenery, walking and countryside

Colin loves to demonstrate approaches as well as provide training with often very large groups - always with a clear focus on facilitation and inclusion of all. His love of drama and participation are as clear as his drive to revolutionise educational psychologist practice across the UK.Colin says: &lsquo;Instinctively from an early age I was against children being sent away to boarding schools and later to special schools and settings. Later I was inspired by disabled activists and Canadian and North American inclusionists who were working to change the world of education with radical innovative thinking and approaches&nbsp;&nbsp;- the work was political, social and spiritual - I was in and never looked back!&rsquo;Colin&rsquo;s career has been values driven, but also practical using applied psychology in training and real life problem solving with schools, families and individual children and young people. <h3 id="isPasted" style="color: rgb(71, 199, 245); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: rgb(71, 199, 245);">Learning Objectives</h3><ul fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><li style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); box-sizing: border-box;" id="isPasted" fr-original-style=" color: #000000;">Formulate deeper&nbsp;&nbsp;understanding of learning processes for all children and adults</li><li style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: #000000;">Differentiate understandings and insights into emotional complexity of teaching and learning</li><li style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: #000000;">Learn&nbsp;Techniques to support teaching and learning</li><li style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: #000000;">Invite reflection on importance of relationships for effective learning</li><li style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: #000000;">Gain key phrases, key questions and key processes to support teaching and learning with adults and children</li><li style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: #000000;">Appraise&nbsp;&nbsp;different psychological models of learning</li><li style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: #000000;">Conjecture on how to inspire deeper learning and motivation in students</li><li style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: #000000;">To create insights into thinking of exceptional teachers teaching complex skills</li><li style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: #000000;">Differentiate &nbsp;inclusive insights and reflections on the learning of all children whatever their barriers may be</li><li style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: #000000;">Critique psychological models of learning and how they can be applied in a teaching context&nbsp;</li><li style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: #000000;">Investigate how to inspire deeper learning and motivation in students&nbsp;</li><li style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: #000000;">Formulate insights into the emotional complexity of teaching and learning</li></ul> <h3 style="color: rgb(71, 199, 245); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: rgb(71, 199, 245);">Who Is It For ?</h3>Any Teacher, Psychologist or Educator who wishes to understand the learning processes of children or adults<h3 id="isPasted" style="color: rgb(71, 199, 245); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: rgb(71, 199, 245);">Course Content</h3><ol id="isPasted" fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><li style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: #000000;">Fun, engagement and interest are key ingredients of the the most memorable learning.</li><li style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: #000000;">Imitation - (Bandura) Social learning theory- we can assume that 80%of learning is done by imitating others around us in the social world.

She was inspired to enter the publishing industry after completing an MA in Creative Writing and then spent a hugely enjoyable year working as a bookseller for Waterstones, wishing that she could have a hand in publishing books.After a year working at Dorling Kindersley, she then spent almost five years working in the commercial fiction division at Pan Macmillan, where she published a mix of commercial bestsellers and award-winning authors.Most recently, she was an Associate Literary Agent at Zeno Agency Ltd. As an agent she represented a roster of commercial and literary fiction, including Anne Griffin&rsquo;s When All is Said, which spent five weeks at number one in Ireland and sold into 17 territories.She is delighted to be working with Hannah at Hannah Sheppard Literary Agency.Louise is looking for:-Literary and upmarket fiction that focusses on the underdog, the repressed, the suppressed. Louise is especially interested in novels that represent working-class people or children going through difficult circumstances (think Shuggie Bain by Douglas Stuart, My Name is Leon by Kit de Waal or Boys Don&rsquo;t Cry by F&Iacute;ona Scarlett).Irish literary and book club fiction. Think Claire Keegan, Louise Kennedy or Anne Griffin.In commercial fiction she loves novels set during the Second World War, such as The Nightingale by Kristin Hannah, The Beekeeper of Aleppo by Christi Lefteri or The Midwife of Auschwitz by Anna Stuart. Louise recently read and loved The Last List of Mabel Beaumont by Laura Pearson and would love to see anything in the same &lsquo;older person going on a journey&rsquo; category, a more recent The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry.Louise had a lot of fun publishing a &lsquo;pet fiction&rsquo; novel as an editor (Molly and the Cat&nbsp;Caf&eacute;) and would love to find an author who can write an Alfie the Doorstep Cat/Dog.She has a soft spot for novels featuring time-travel or parallel universes, a &lsquo;what if&rsquo; that plays around with conventions. At the literary end this would be books like Life After Life by Kate Atkinson, The Shining Girls by Lauren Beukes or This is How You Lose the Time War by Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone. At the more commercial end Louise loved Wrong Place, Wrong Time by Gillian McAllister, Dark Matter by Blake Crouch and Oona Out of Order by Martina Montimore.

And also cosy fantasy in the vein of Legends and Lattes or&nbsp;The House in the Cerulean Sea.Cosy or humorous crime. Recently, Louise absolutely loved Over My Dead Body by Maz Evans. When she was an editor Louise published the hit Luckiest Girl Alive by Jessica Knoll and would love to represent incisive, intelligent suspense written by authors such as Jessica Knoll and Gillian Flynn, or something a little more subversive and blackly comic like My Sister, the Serial Killer by Oyinkan Braithwaite.More generally, Louise would also love to see novels with a disabled protagonist or someone (like myself) who is living with an invisible disability.

Unique picture books, funny middle-grade and teen projects (think Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging and Glow Up Lara Bloom) are currently at the top of her list this year. She is very interested in finding a graphic novel or illustrated project for either MG or YA readers. 
She is very open when it comes to Children’s non-fiction but would be particularly interested to consider unique cookbooks aimed at young chefs, books exploring mental health/wellness and projects that bring the experiences of marginalised children to the forefront.
In the adult fiction space, Gyamfia enjoys well-plotted, fast-paced narratives with authentic characters who lodge themselves in her mind long after she’s finished reading (think Big Little Lies, Verity and Girl A). She’s open to a broad range of genres, but would be particularly keen to see cosy crime, global stories and tightly plotted domestic noir. 
In the adult non-fiction space, she would be happy to consider commercial narrative non-fiction and cultural history projects (think Brit(ish), It’s Not That Radical and Everything I Know About Love).
Gyamfia would like you to submit a covering letter, 1 page synopsis and the opening three chapters (max 5,000 words). For picture books please send two texts and a covering letter. For non-fiction please supply a cover letter and proposal with up to 5,000 words of your sample text.
(In addition to the paid sessions, Gyamfia is kindly offering one free session for low income/under-represented writers. Please email agent121@iaminprint.co.uk to apply, outlining your case for this option which is offered at the discretion of I Am In Print). 
By booking you understand you need to conduct an internet connection test with I Am In Print prior to the event. You also agree to email your material in one document to reach I Am In Print by the stated submission deadline and note that I Am In Print take no responsibility for the advice received during your agent meeting.
The submission deadline is: Monday 7 October 2024

SOLD OUT! 30th October Emily Talbot #Agent121. Looking for: PICTURE BOOKS, MG, YA

LOOKING FOR: ADULT FICTION, NON-FICTION
Rachel Neely began her publishing career in 2016 at HarperCollins, before moving to Hachette where she worked as an editor for the next six years, specialising in crime and thrillers along with book club novels and contemporary fiction, most recently as a Commissioning Editor at Orion. 
Rachel joined Mushens Entertainment at the start of 2022 as an Associate Agent, assisting Juliet Mushens with her client list, including multiple Sunday Times and New York Times bestselling authors. Simultaneously she began signing her own clients. In August 2023 she was promoted to Literary Agent and is actively growing her list, looking for book-club fiction, dark academia, rom-coms, tragic love stories, crime and thrillers. Please note she is not the right agent for sci-fi, espionage novels, YA or children’s books. 
She signs both commercial and literary authors, and is always looking for a distinctive voice matched with a compelling plot. She also is especially drawn to darker stories that centre characters with tragic fates, dark pasts or buried trauma. She is also keen to find authors from underrepresented groups who can bring a fresh perspective to well-worn story arcs, or capture experiences shared by many but, as of yet, underexplored in fiction. 
She would love to see a commercial locked-room thriller in the vein of The Midnight Feast, The White Lotus or with shades of Succession; novels about cults such as The Girls; a voice-led serial-killer thriller reminiscent of How to Kill Your Family; compelling dark academia to rival The Secret History; a high-concept but tragic love story that will make her ugly cry in the vein of The Time Traveller’s Wife or One Day; and anything that has an outsider trying to break into the world of the privileged and morally bankrupt.
Besides those above, her favourite novels include The List, The Talented Mr Ripley, The Lovely Bones, Other People’s Clothes, The It Girl, The Girl Before, Notes on an Execution, My Dark Vanessa and My Sister the Serial Killer.
Rachel would like you to submit a covering letter, 1 - 2 page synopsis and the first 5000 words of your manuscript in a single word document. 
(In addition to the paid sessions, Rachel is kindly offering one free session for low income/underrepresented writers. Please email agent121@iaminprint.co.uk to apply, outlining your case for this option which is offered at the discretion of I Am In Print). 
By booking you understand you need to conduct an internet connection test with I Am In Print prior to the event. You also agree to email your material in one document to reach I Am In Print by the stated submission deadline and note that I Am In Print take no responsibility for the advice received during your agent meeting.
