Rose Tomaszewska
Rose Tomaszewska graduated from UEA and worked for over twelve years in publishing, as Editorial Director at Chatto & Windus (Vintage, Penguin Random House), Virago (Little, Brown) and riverrun (Quercus). Authors she’s published have won or been shortlisted for the Scottish Book of the Year, the BBC National Short Story Award, the Goldsmith’s Prize, the Bath Novel Award, the Orwell Prize, the Women’s Prize and the Bailie Gifford Prize. She teaches at Arvon, Faber Academy and has run workshops at various universities, literary festivals and in a women’s prison. Currently she is a freelance editor and reviews new fiction for a literary scout.
Her teaching style is hands-on, imaginative and interactive, valuing exercises over lecturing and encouraging students to collaborate and develop new skills, with a lot of positivity and laughter along the way.
