Publishing Your Writing (our group has morphed again!)

1/9/2019

0 Comments

 
Having developed from the Memoir Writing group – this group has morphed again - not as simply publishing memoirs, but looking at editing and refining all writing for publication.

At this stage we are looking mostly at works in progress, and developing ideas and themes for the completion of our stories. So, do join us on the third Monday, 2 – 4, and bring along those discarded writings, be they novels, short stories or even memoirs!

'Publishing Your Writing'

25/7/2019

0 Comments

 
‘Publishing Your Writing’ is a development from ‘As time goes by’ – Memoir writing and aims to assist in the editing, amending and/or preparing writing for publication.  It was initially advertised as ‘Writing and Publishing your Memoirs, however ‘Publishing Your Writing’ is a better fit. 

The group is moving to its own two hour timeslot of the third Monday of the month 2 – 4pm, commencing  19th August.

The  group has been looking at memoirs of established writers and biographers – their presentation, readability, even like-ability!  What tricks can we learn and apply to our own writing, presentation and flair.  Be daring with your work and take the next step!  All welcome.

    Publishing Your Writing 

    ​‘Publishing Your Writing’ is a development from ‘As time goes by’ – Memoir writing and aims to assist in editing, amending and/or preparing writing for publication. 

    The "Writing and publishing our memoirs" group began during Semester 1 2019 with an avid group of writers keen to make their family story a story their family will want to read! Members will be encouraged to complete on a memoir or family history with a view to publication, with a format and quirks more in style of a novel than perhaps the usual, dare I say boring, family tome.

    While 'Publishing your Writing' will continue to include the publishing of memoirs, there are many other areas of writing which can be brought to the group for discussion with convenor Noelle McCracken, who has had rich experience in the publishing industry.
