In this full day workshop you will learn some of the basics of the art of telling stories from your life; from rough idea to being ready to share in front of a live audience.
No online course to fumble and teach yourself at home. You will have all day face to face tuition. Once you learn these skills you will be able to reference over and over depending on your situation.
In an atmosphere of fun and enquiry, discover ways to approach telling your story, and communicate it with clarity, confidence and compassion.
The key areas to be explored within this workshop includes:
how to find the right theme to focus on
how to structure your life story so that it is dramatically compelling
how to turn yourself and the people in your life into compelling characters
how to seduce your readers by describing your experiences vividly
And all throughout, we'll particularly pay attention to helping you hone your unique writing voice.
Connecting with the story you want to tell
Writing key points of your story
Communicating your story
Under each of these headings the aim is to encourage exploration, offer exercises and skills, and invite discussion.
By the end of the workshop you will walk away with a strong story spine from which to develop your personal story.
You will also have had the opportunity to tell your story and have tools to help with future presentations.
Also includes:
Lunch and afternoon tea refreshments
Print outs/workbooks and pens
Take home gifts
Chance to meet other like-minded creative women
Having access to this type of information face to face from such an expert is an incredible opportunity and value.
