Get to know Jessica J. Lee, our Nature Writing Workshop Course Director

What is the role of the nature writer today? If nature is not only in the pristine wilderness, Jessica asks, but in our cities, our bodies and ways of living, what does this mean for the nature writer? Jessica J. Lee is the founding editor of the Willowherb Review, author of Two Trees Make a Forest and a Faculty Mentor on the MFA in Creative Nonfiction at the University of King's College. She is a contributor to Granta magazine and the Course Director for Granta’s Nature Writing Workshop. Since its inception as a literary quarterly in 1979, Granta has been committed to championing the best in new writing. As part of our ongoing mission to support new and emerging writers, we have developed a programme of workshops with our education partners Professional Writing Academy. These courses are designed to offer writers the tools to develop their technical skills, and the ability to understand the nuances of excellent literary craftsmanship. These online, tutored courses are hosted on a fully accessible virtual platform, available anywhere in the world, offering flexible learning at a time and pace to suit individual needs. Each course draws on the archive of world-class literature published in the pages of Granta over the past forty years. Students will develop their authorial voice while honing their prose through practical assignments, one-to-one tutor feedback and peer learning with a cohort of committed students. Bursary-funded places will be available on each course for those in financial need. Course entry is by application. Course completion opens up our Alumni Space, which provides ongoing access to industry professionals, including authors, Granta editors and literary agents. https://workshops.granta.com/courses/
