SIAN PRIOR – Workshop 2 – Memoir for emerging writers

Mildura Writers Festival

Event Date: 8 July 2018
Author / Presenters: Dr Sian Prior

Life writing requires a thoughtful excavation of the self and an empathy with your imagined readers. In this workshop we will explore: how to separate the ‘story’ you want to tell from the ‘situation’ you are describing; how to find the right ‘voice’ for your story; and how to create vivid ‘characters’ from real people.
Dr Sian Prior teaches creative writing at RMIT University and the author of ‘Shy: a memoir’ (Text)

* For those with writing experience who want some practical guidelines.
On Sunday 8 July 2018 at 1:30pm
