Everybody has a story to tell. However seemingly ordinary or extraordinary your life is – or was. The contemporary memoir is tellingly popular. To make readers care as much about your story as you do, you must have the finesse of fiction. This intensive two hour workshop with columnist, writer, playwright and salonnière Damian Barr will encourage you to focus your life story and give it literary credibility by casting yourself as the central character and focusing on the specific emotional challenges of remembering. The evening includes a reading from his new book, Maggie & Me, a Q&A and a drinks reception with the author.
