My Experience
Over the last five years, I have lead or facilitated 175 sessions for writers.
I started out facilitating tutor-led creative writing masterclasses and courses with London Lit Lab.
I began running my own Trans Writing Group under the banner Access Narrative.
Led the Accountability Club body doubling sessions through The Writing Laboratory Substack.
Collaborated with Katie Watson to deliver her Writing the Self courses, then later we co-designed Writers’ Circle.
I’ve been working with organisations such as the Viv Gordon Company and We Are Sensoria to deliver Reflections on Creative Practice workshops.
I am a survivor of sexual, physical, emotional and neglectful child abuse. I use my lived experience to develop more accessible community for those who are non-conforming, disabled, poor and who have experienced abuse.
To improve my skills with designing and facilitating safer creative spaces for survivors of child sexual abuse, I completed a 3-month creative leadership training programme with the Viv Gordon Company, Cohort #4, Nov2025–Feb2026.
Paid Support
I provide paid mentoring and editing services to writers seeking individual support with their creative projects.
I have been aiding writing tutors to deliver high quality online teaching since 2021. If you’d like to hire me for my facilitation services, please get in touch by emailing enniswelbourne@gmail.com.
If you’d like to otherwise financially support me, you can donate via Paypal or Stripe.
My Writing
I hold a first-class degree in creative writing from Bath Spa University. I have been published in three anthologies; Queer Life, Queer Love 3, You Are Here, a collection of survivor writing, and Transcribed An Anthology of Trans Writing.
