Researching memoir and how we write it at The University of Sheffield and writing sassy self-deprecating life-snippets. Musing on what it is to be a creative researcher. Reading romantasy for balance.
Delighted to be part of NAWE's conference on 'Inspiring Writing' with a paper about using the writing process as inspiration in memoir. It looks like it's going to be fab, and it's online, so you can join from the comfort of your own home!

I'm interested in memoirs that explore the act of remembering - how difficult it is to remember accurately and the process of trying to write then - anyone got any suggestions?

I came away on a writing retreat and within 3 hours of arriving I have written 2500 words. Turns out all I need to make writing progress is a 3-hour train ride and a hashtag-aesthetic writing space.

p.s. I'm new here, anyone want to be friends?
