I remember crusty just baked bread, rubbed with juicy tomato flesh, swimming in a puddle of thick green olive oil….
So you want to write about your life, or that of a loved one, but you’re not sure where to start? Maybe you have a few ideas, a bunch of notes, or perhaps even a few chapters? If you want to kick start your memoir, join me for a day workshop in Box Hill (15 March) or a weekend workshop in Aireys Inlet (18-19 April). Of course, there will be food involved. Check out my workshop page for more details.
a photo remind us so many things. Nice one.

Spiri, I loved your workshop!
The whole weekend was just fabulous, you effortlessly managed to encourage, guide and inspire each of us to dig down deep into the loamy soil of our lives - and I thank you for that Spiri and for sharing your own story and the dreaming, discipline and focus required to commit your memories and experiences to print.
Ciao

Shelagh, how lovely of you to write and let me know that you enjoyed the workshop! Thank you. It's such an honour to hear the stories of people who have had so many powerful life experiences and who want to express those creatively. I got as much from the group as you did, believe me. It does take courage to tell difficult stories but I think it's worth it. Keep writing! xx Spiri
