WHAT STUDENTS SAY
“I don’t think I would ever have discovered the poet within if it were not for the challenge set by Lana in my first term with her.”
J. Stephens, Professor Emeritus, UAL
Lana has a brilliant way of getting right to the heart of what you’re trying to say. She nudges, never pushes — and makes the writing process feel less daunting and more like a good chat over coffee
Rachel Khoo, best-selling author & TV presenter
‘I owe a huge debt of gratitude… for inestimable writing tuition, advice and honest feedback.’
Kathryn Faulke, author of Every Kind of People & Mslexia Prize winner
Lana is a literary dom, merciless she whips you into the best version of your writing self
The Ania, lead-singer of Pushy Pushy
Passionate TeacheR & Creative Collaborator
With over sixteen years of teaching experience at Morley College, I’ve helped hundreds of writers—from complete beginners to published and prize-winning authors—develop their craft and find their unique voice.
My approach is supportive, practical and workshop-based. I believe writing thrives on confidence, curiosity and play, and I guide rather than dictate, helping each writer discover what makes their work their own.
I created my classes because I wanted the kind of space I wish I’d had as a younger writer: intimate, honest, rigorous and generous.
A place where writers feel seen, challenged and supported—and confident enough to take creative risks.
