About the Book

Have you got a story you're burning to tell - a true story from your life (not your WHOLE life story - memoir is a part of your life). The events you want to write about, did they last weeks, months, or years? You decide.-Do you think it's a cracking good story?-Read this book to find out how to turn YOUR STORY into a memoir. -Chapters include planning, story-telling, place and time, character, description, voice, publishing and marketing. This book explains how you can develop your writing skills and avoid some of the pitfalls that can be encountered. This is not a quick fix book - it's for those who have a serious desire to write a book and publish it. First, you must learn your craft. Then you must practise and get feedback. I did for ten years. Then you can look at your publishing options. Good Luck. Stay Focused. You CAN do it. Here's a quote from an independent reviewer last week: This is an awesome book and a must read for anyone who dreams of writing a memoir. I have been writing nonfiction since the early 80s but had no clue as to how to write a memoir until I read this book. People have been telling me for years that I should write about my life, now I know how to go about writing my first memoir. Thank You![This review is on Amazon and is by a totally unknown and independent reviewer].
About the Author: Anna has written and published one memoir and is half way through the second. The first was called A Hippopotamus at the Table and is set in 1970s South Africa. Her second memoir is called Beyond the Bounds and is set in London and Indonesia (already Chapter One got a Highly Commended prize in the Winchester Writing Festival 2017). She has extensive teaching experience in a variety of subjects including Ancient Egyptian history and Information Technology. More recently she has been teaching Memoir Writing to small groups. Their stories continually amaze her and she hopes to hear many more. With this book, she looks forward to setting lots of people on the path of writing their story. Anna is also a prize winning and published performance poet, member of Highgate Poets with two published collections - Heartbroke and Dolly Mix.
