Join professional writer and teacher Chris Bartlett and explore the world of memoir writing - this session is perfect for an absolute beginner or for someone who already has a little writing experience.

Have you ever wanted to capture the life story of someone close to you? Whether it’s an elderly relative, a dear friend, or someone whose memories you want to treasure, this workshop will help you get started.

"Writing Their Story" is a two-hour, hands-on session designed to help you write a memoir that reflects the voice and experiences of someone you care about.

During the workshop, you’ll:

Learn how to gather stories through interviews and prompts. Explore simple ways to structure a memoir, whether by life events or themes.

Pick up tips to bring memories to life with vivid details and emotional moments.

Build confidence in capturing their unique voice and perspective.

We’ll also tackle common challenges, like how to approach sensitive topics or deal with gaps in memory, so you’ll feel ready to handle whatever comes up.

What do you need? Just a notebook, a pen, and someone in mind whose story you’d love to tell.

“A great memoir doesn’t just tell a story – it treasures someone’s memory forever. Let us help you write theirs.”
