Seriously though … you really want
to write a memoir?
Have you got a story that needs to be told? A big event from your life?
Do you want to explore how to plan it, write it,
print it and sell it? Do you
want to know how to become an author, with a book for sale?
I’m running a Life writing/memoir course starting at 6:30 pm on Thurs April 27th 2017.
There’ll be 8 one hour 30 min sessions. The venue will be near Turnpike Lane station (Piccadilly Line - 2 stops from Finsbury Park (Victoria Line) and the cost for the entire course will be £80 (some low income reductions). See updates here at my blog www.ameryt.com.
Each week I’ll cover a different aspect of memoir writing – topics will
be:
1. What’s
your story about? 2. Plot and backstory. 3.Beginnings (and endings)
4. Character and dialogue. 5. Timeline. 6. Truth, lies and libel.
7. The
narrator. Editing.
8. Publishing options and agents
I give short writing exercises throughout and feedback.
Do you really want to
face the challenges of writing a memoir? Seriously?
You’ll find out by the
end of this course, you really will.
I’m a poet and an author – I have 3 books for sale
– one is a memoir, which took me 5-10 years to write. I learnt a lot. I used to teach undergraduates at London
Metropolitan University and at Birkbeck University of London. I have an MA in
Professional Writing.
