Introduction:


Do you have a story to tell?

Would you like to write about an important event or time in your life? 

Micro-memoir is a writing genre that can hold a complex story within 700 words or less. Come and explore compact storytelling and bring your unique story to the page with focus and compression.

During this course we explore what micro-memoir is and how to use it. Through guided exercises and discussion, we deep dive into narrative techniques and writing skills that support and enhance storytelling in limited word counts. The skills we use to craft micro-memoir are transferable and can help sharpen all other forms of writing.

Workshop participants draft, craft and refine at least one micro-memoir.

No previous writing experience is necessary.

Tutor Profile:

Dettra Rose wrote her first flash in 2018, winning the Australian Writers’ Centre Furious Fiction prize – and a love affair was born. Since then, her stories have been short/longlisted and placed in many esteemed competitions both in Australia and the Uk. Two have been nominated for Best British/Irish Flash Fiction.  
Dettra works with all forms of short writing and teaches people how to craft powerful stories in tight word counts. She is particularly enthusiastic about micro-memoir and knows we all have incredible and unique stories to tell.  
Dettra is originally from London and now lives in beautiful Ocean Shores. Beware, her love for flash writing is infectious.
