If you’re interested in writing magazine style articles of up to 3,000 words or constructing a memoir based on all of your life, or a significant part of it, then Henry and Rachael's Features and Memoir Writing course is for you. These two experienced writers will take students on a journey from the basics of feature writing through to the art of penning a memoir. The course will also offer practical advice on how to pitch your ideas for a feature or book; exactly where to send that pitch and which ideas are currently in vogue in the newspaper, magazine and publishing worlds.
