The waitlist for September 2024 is OPEN. 

This course will run on each of the five Mondays in September (2nd-30th) 1-3pm BST with Week Four’s Guest Reader still to be announced…

This course is open to Founding Members, and here’s what you get across the five 2-hour-long sessions, as well as a year’s access to all Annual Member benefits:

Join me and a small group of writers in a compassionate, supportive online space to explore the craft of memoir over five weeks. Through readings and exercises, you will develop your premise, find your unique voice and explore different aspects of the life writer's craft from structure and form through to characterisation and the ethics of life writing. You will also work on the nuts and bolts of writing, including how to choose and use a variety of narrative framing devices and how to write dialogue.

Each writer will be invited to book one 45-minute tutorial with me during week three or four to discuss their WIP, and on week four we'll be joined by our guest reader.

On our final session, we'll join together in a sharing ceilidh to celebrate the month's work and our time together.
