Attending the memoirs course will enable you to write that special life story that will engage and thrill readers.?

Gail said:?The Secrets of a Memoirist course has been beyond revolutionary for me, both personally and in terms of providing the technical knowledge that I had hoped to gain. What a journey your course has set me on. Thank you.
Marcia said: I just wanted to tell you how much I enjoyed the memoir course. The facilitator was very good. He facilitated well, always being relevant to the issues that were worrying each of us.
Judy said:?I just wanted to thank you again for a very special Memoirs course last week. I got everything I wanted from the course and a whole lot more which I hadn?t been expecting at all! ?I felt affirmed and supported and encouraged.

We cover:?

  • Conflict & suspense ? how to balance reality with pacing
  • Emotion ? how to engage readers
  • Dialogue ? how you speak in a memoir?
