COURSE:
Edible Memoir

“The base of food to inspire writing and the way it revealed so many other deeper relationship connections. The writing exercises, the shared food. The peaceful setting at Giles' home was also a plus. I haven't written this much in a long time!”“Very generative, unlocked a wealth of potential related ideas to explore in future writing.”

“I am still blown away at how writing about food brought to life so many beautiful, funny and painful memories. I also enjoyed the setting and listening to other participant's stories which gave me insight into their lives as well.”“I loved how gently curated the space was, that it was controlled and yet allowed for spontaneous conversations and feedback that further enriched the space. It was a brilliant balance. Although the time assigned to write seemed short, I think it worked perfectly because it silenced the inner critic and in doing so, I heard some superb, honest pieces read out during the day.”
