Truth of Non-Fiction with Helena Pastor
Excited about your written memoir yet feel it lacks that certain edge of perfection?
In this exciting new workshop, Truth of Non Fiction, Author Helena Pastor- “Wild Boys- A Parent’s story of Tough Love” will help guide you and share her valuable tips for bringing out the beauty, pain and emotional truths of writing memoir. “A memoir without heart doesn’t work. If you ‘hold back’ when writing memoir, your story will lack emotional truth which will lead to problems with focus and structure” About the presenter...
