Maker's bio

I have an M.A. in Professional Writing, am a published author and have worked in print media, as an editor and journalist, for over 25 years. I have been teaching Creative Writing for over ten years to a wide range of people, some of whom are complete beginners, some of whom have been writing for years. My students have written picture books, memoirs, apps, business reports, romances, crime, non-fiction and comic novels. My classes will help you reach your creative writing goals, whatever your story.

Tessa Lewis reviewed: Creative writing course, 5 hours, live online, one-to-one tuition. Beginners to advanced.

"Deana, Many thanks for the new knowledge, tips and confidence that your course has given me. You're a warm, friendly and supportive teacher and the flexibility with which you structured and scheduled each session around my needs made the course fun, useful and really relevant for me. I feel able to go on now with the novel that I'd given up on, and that's all thanks to you! Very best wishes to you and yours, Tessa."

Deana Luchia responded:

"Thank you so much, Tessa. I’m so pleased you enjoyed the course and found it useful. I’d love to read your novel when it’s finished so keep going!"

Angela Galante reviewed: Creative writing course, 5 hours, live online, one-to-one tuition. Beginners to advanced.

"I highly recommend Deana's creative writing classes. I found the course inspiring, fun and thought provoking. Despite having an idea for a novel, I hadn't written for quite some time prior to starting the course. Now I have a clear direction, write regularly and have learnt techniques and skills that have really improved my writing. I found Deana's feedback incredibly helpful and her a fun and inspiring person to spend time with - she is clearly passionate about what she does. I look forward to taking more classes in the future. Thank you."

Deana Luchia responded:

"Thank you for such a lovely review of my course. I really loved your ideas and hope to read your first novel soon!"

Marcus Leaning reviewed: Creative writing course, 5 hours, live online, one-to-one tuition. Beginners to advanced.

"This was a wonderful and very thoughtful introduction to creative writing. I had drafted some writing of my own prior to the course and the tutor, Deana, structured the course around my work. This has helped me tremendously with my work. The sessions involve Deana explaining some key points and then you have to actually engage in the work. I recommend this course most highly and will certainly be taking further courses with Deana."

Deana Luchia responded:

"Thank you so much, Marcus. I’m really glad you enjoyed the course and found it useful. I look forward to reading more of your work."

Bonnie reviewed: Creative Writing Course, one-to-one tuition, via Zoom.

"I had all but given up on my dreams of becoming a writer, but doing this course inspired me to pick up a pen (well, keyboard) and start trying again. Deana is a skilled and experienced teacher, who offers a positive and comfortable environment for you to explore your creative ideas. Beforehand, I thought that one-to-one zoom sessions might be awkward, but it was relaxed and fun. As with any creative writing course, you will get out what you put in, and there is enough structure and practical guidance to help develop your work, but lots of practical opportunities to explore your own style. I would highly recommend this course for writers at any level of experience - I'm certainly glad I did it."

Deana Luchia responded:

"Bonnie, thank you! I'm so happy you enjoyed the course."
