To celebrate Family History Month, Hazel Edwards will provide you with the tools needed to plan and write a family history story or anecdote aimed at entertaining the younger children in your family.
You'll learn researching and interviewing skills, how to organise your material, structuring a book, making it interesting for the reader, formatting and publishing options, handling family secrets, editing and proofreading, how to write using all senses and perspectives, plus launching and marketing possibilities.
