Writing Memoirs Workshop - 8th October 2024

Our next workshop is on Tuesday, 8th October at 2.30pm at Abbey Row Community Centre, Abbey Row, Kelso, TD5 7BJ.
As usual, we'll be in the Coffee Bar, the first room you come to, after the front door.
This workshop is about writing memoirs.
Everyone can write from life or write their memoirs but what should you include and what should you leave out? What’s the best format?
Join us to discuss and learn what to do at our next workshop led by Peter Munro.
There will be 3 writing exercises.
The suggested donation for the workshop is £5 (£4 for members), which includes light refreshments. If you haven’t attended one of our workshops before, we don't expect a donation.
There will also be an attendance sheet on this table. Please write your first name and surname, so that in the event of a fire, we can check that you're out of the building.
