Summary

In a time when celebrity culture has dominated the concept of the SELF, it has never been more important to capture both the ordinary and extraordinary nature of our personal lives and forge them into meaningful art. Through a series of workshops you will draw on your own experience, exploring such concepts as history and memory, to write about the ‘SELF’, and be guided through the necessary steps in which to produce well-crafted and imaginative pieces of memoir writing. As well as educating the imagination to put your life experiences into words, we will look at what writing is and what it can become. For the unseasoned writer, playing with words will enable you to develop your writer’s voice; those who have been writing a while will learn how to drill deeper into their notion of writing as a whole, and build upon their knowledge of the word.
