"MEMOIR WRITING" with Ease

& memoirist Clover Stroud 
 

Exciting news! We are collaborating once again with

The Sunday Times best selling author, Clover Stroud.

Clover's 4th memoir  'The Giant on the Skyline'

was published on the 9th May 2024. 

​

 Join us for an exclusive

'Memoir Writing Day Retreat' with Clover Stroud 

NEW 2024 DATES TO BE ANNOUNCED

​

Where: This exclusive memoir writing retreat will be hosted in a beautiful residence near Chipping Norton

  

​What to expect: A full day of learning, writing and nourishment set in a calming and relaxing environment. 

This is a really special day, where you will learn about writing yourself and your story onto the page.  Having written three memoirs, which have all been Sunday Times bestsellers, and her 4th being published on 9th May, Clover could be described as the expert of memoir writing! 

 

Over the course of a day, she will share her unique insights into the experience of memoir writing with you.  Clover is a writer who has earned herself a hugely loyal following because of her breath-taking ability to write with real heart and true integrity. Clover will talk you through the experience of writing memoir, providing real life examples, and writing exercises to help you learn how to creatively channel all the feelings of your life. 

 

This is an outstanding opportunity to learn more about memoir, from nurturing your earliest ideas, to structuring an outline, to learning how to channel your deepest emotions to create beautiful prose. She will also provide hints and tips on writing a proposal, getting an agent, and approaching a publisher.

​

Hosted in a relaxing venue in Over Norton, not far from Chipping Norton, you’ll receive a welcome goody bag, and feast on delicious local produce around the kitchen table for lunch.  There will also be an opportunity, should you wish, to sit in the garden, to get some fresh air between workshops and writing sessions. You may of course prefer to stay indoors

and stay snug with your notebook in the cosy sitting room

​

This will be a really beautiful and unique day which we hope will leave you creatively and spiritually inspired

​
