They say that newsletters are the new Sunday papers and blogs are having a revival so get on board with this workshop! Whether it’s for personal or professional goals; Sophie will explain the technical aspects of setting up a newsletter and/or blog then move on to writing subject lines that get people excited to click and read. We’ll also cover how to structure your newsletters and blog posts for maximum readability and run through a variety of topics and writing prompts to get you off and running.

With 20 years’ experience in journalism and food writing, Sophie Hansen’s work these days focusses on My Open Kitchen; a podcast and e-course designed to give farmers, producers and value-adders the inspiration, skills and confidence they need to use social media to grow their businesses and build supportive communities.

She has authored and photographed a book of recipes and stories, writes and photographs still for her popular blog of the same name Local is Lovely and has just submitted her second cookbook manuscript to a publisher for release in Autumn 2019.
