Reading C.S. Lewis can be a master class in how to write. His prose is clear and vivid, his dialogue is convincing, he strikes a fine balance between showing and telling, and he has a gift for conveying abstract ideas in concrete language. In short, Lewis’s writing embodies the principles that writing instructors try to inculcate.

In Writing Through the Wardrobe, we will examine The Lion, the Witch and the  Wardrobe with a writer’s eye, to see how we can make Lewis’s techniques work in our own writing. 

Writing through the Wardrobe includes six 90-minute live lectures* via Zoom, as well as a dedicated online forum for discussion and optional writing exercises. 

*Recordings of the lectures will also be available for learners who can’t attend the live lectures.
