Event Description

In this workshop, Madison Griffiths will consider the value of writing memory in the toolbox of the creative non-fiction writer: how it inhabits the body, the page, and affords the author the space to intimately nestle large themes into nuanced, personal narrative. Participants will harness tools to imbed their prose with fluidity, power and pointedness, honing in on the significance of recollection, and where, and how, it ought to live within prose. This workshop will incite writers to illuminate the past with courage, curiosity and lyrical inquiry.

Madison Griffiths is an author, artist and producer. Her debut book Tissue (Ultimo Press) was released in 2023. She is the co-producer of Tender, a podcast that tracks the journey of individuals as they decide to leave an abusive relationship. In 2022, she was awarded the Walkley Foundation Our Watch Award for Excellence in Reporting on Violence Against Women, alongside co-producer, Beth Atkinson-Quinton.
