About this Event
Real Writers Circle - Ghostwriting
What can storytellers and memoirists learn about structure, voice, arcs and themes from a ghostwriter - an expert in crafting someone else's story into a compelling narrative?
Join us to hear from seasoned ghostwriter Helen Croydon about the nuts and bolts of channeling a client's story onto the page, the challenges and solutions, and how the publishing process works.
Helen will discuss her latest project, Forbidden Love, a memoir about adoption, published on 1 May. For an insider view of this secretive segment of the publishing industry, book your ticket.
Agenda:
Connect, Learn, Share
1. Connecting: We believe that writers who know each other learn more. In this part of the evening, we actively facilitate a conversation between attendees. (This bit can be loud – in a good way.)
2. Hot Seat: With a speaker or a panel, we explore a topic/theme and promote sharing of expertise and knowledge among the group.
3. Reading: Up to two members share their work aloud. Listening to each other’s writing and offering feedback (if requested) informs our craft.
Meeting monthly, Real Writers Circle is a dedicated collective of writers who give and receive support, insights and advice as we improve our writing craft – for publication or otherwise. Circle members are un/published authors across any genre or form. The group is open to anyone who is intensional about their writing and wants to learn how to hone their craft.
