Writing workshop: Writing family history in novel form

Det skal du vide

Maybe your grandfather was in the resistance movement. Maybe your mother was a Redstocking. Or maybe your great-grandparents lived a completely ordinary life in Albertslund - and that's just as interesting. Writing your family's history is one of the most beautiful and difficult tasks you can undertake. In this workshop, Johanne Mygind provides her best tools for transforming family history into living literature - and for navigating what can behurt along the way. We work with both short writing exercises and concrete examples, and there will be time for conversation and sparring along the way. About the trainer Johanne Mygind has written the novels Kærlighedens Åro and Giftig, both of which are based on her own family's past. She has also worked as a journalist for Weekendavisen, Information and P 1. Practical info The writing workshop is aimed at adults. Participation is free, but requires registration on Billetto.
