Description

Kick start your memoir - writing exercises

This course has been designed to take you on a journey through various memories to help you to find the slice of life that you may want to share.

It isn't a how to write a memoir. It is a kick start. A kick start that will help you to later plan, outline, write, edit and publish your book.

The course is split into what I call the chapters of your life. Each invites you to explore your life, has a teaching point and some writing exercises.

Writing about your life is a way to make sense of your life, it helps you to heal and it is an amazing way to leave behind a legacy - your legacy.

Memoir lets you share your stories, in a way that lets others see what you went through (good or not so good), shows who you are and says 'maybe I can help you, maybe you can learn from me."

That feels good, doesn't it?

To get you started I have some great memoir writing exercises.  Once you start to pull all of these together you will be on your way to your first memoir.

This course writing exercises for writing a memoir delivers:

  • Ten chapters of your life

  • Lots of writing exercises to kick start your memory and your writing

Take your time and enjoy this adventure through your life. You will be pleased that you did when you come to writing your story.

Take this course right now and soon you will be on your way to writing a  memoir.

My world revolves around words and the power that they have to heal.

Journaling to create connections to your heart and inner wisdom, which will enable you to see clear pathways through your stuff.  Journaling will help you to gain clarity and guidance. It will also help you to heal.

Writing a book is also incredibly healing. You will heal as you write and your readers will heal as they read and take action on your advice.

This is an exploration with no set rules or guidelines. We will be tapping into your inner wisdom to discover what needs to be known. From there, strategies and plans can be made, outcomes sought and actions taken.

You may want to explore you in a journal, write a book so that you can demonstrate your expertise.

My courses are designed to get you writing in some way.

My Udemy courses

I adore working with inspirational, enthusiastic, energetic people with strong messages. People who want to make a difference. I would love to become part of your onward journey, the one that sees you finding your voice, becoming the best version of you and rocking that out to the world.

My passion is helping you to discover the stories inside of you, and help you to share these so that you can leave your legacy, heal, share your inspirational message, have fun, and have a life that really rocks.

I am an expert at getting your story out, and really finding the essence of what you want to say. And then saying it so that it is engaging and makes an impact.

I have a background in professional training, executive coaching and writing coaching  and I additionally combine these skills to facilitate this journey.

So who am I?

I have been described in many ways - enthusiastic, high energy, inspirational, motivation and fun. I have also been described as beautifully eccentric, which I do indeed take as a compliment. What you get is what you see. What I want for you, is to own who you are and to share your gifts with the world.

In between drinking white tea, experimenting with recipes and walking the the loves of my life - Ferdy dog (RIP), Marley Moo & Angel, I can be found writing. And I do a bit of abstract arty stuff with wire and wool.
