Have you ever thought, ‘I should write that down’?

Whether you want to capture family memories, explore your own experiences, preserve stories for future generations, or simply discover the pleasure of writing, our Life Writing Course will help you turn memories into compelling words.

Over the course, you’ll explore the many forms life writing can take, from memoir and autobiography to biography and other types of creative non-fiction. You’ll learn how to transform memories and experiences into vivid, engaging pieces of writing.

You don’t need to have written before, and you don’t need to consider yourself a ‘writer’. The course is designed for anyone with a story to tell. You’ll be encouraged to write at your own pace, experiment with different approaches and develop your own distinctive voice.

We’ll look at techniques including creating memorable characters, bringing places and moments to life, using dialogue, structuring a story, working with memory, and finding the details that make personal experiences universal.

September 18-19: Face-to-face course, Haworth: £125
