Next workshop: Writing Memoirs, 15th July 2023

If you have ever wanted to write stories either of your own life, or someone else's, do join us. Everyone has stories to tell and these workshops will give you the opportunity to learn how to tell them. We will practice how to describe places and people, how to structure and how to use different narrative techniques. In each workshop we will look at short extracts of published memoirs, do short writing exercises and discuss aspects of writing.
