Imagine living in an apartment in Paris. You’ll be learning the art of writing in the mornings from Australia’s best memoir writing mentor, Patti Miller. In the afternoon, you’ll explore the streets of this amazing city, soak up the Parisienne atmosphere, people watch in the cafes, sample delicious French cuisine and check out gorgeous shops and attractions. Welcome to the Sydney Writers’ Centre’s study tour: Memoir Writing in Paris.
Proposed dates:
Departure: Saturday 7 November 2009
Writing memoir in Paris – it is early autumn, the traditional season of memory and reflection, the light and leaves are golden, the cafes buzz with discussion – and your heart and mind sing with the richness of history, beauty and pleasure as you step out of your own apartment on the way to writing class.
Here is the city made for and by writers, revolutionaries,
poets, philosophers, painters – the city of imagination,
memory and art. Here indeed is the birthplace of modern
memoir where the philosopher Rousseau wrote his
autobiography, Confessions. Join us in this memoir
intensive to immerse yourself in ideas, beauty and
writing for 16 days in the city of light.
