From unreliable narrators to entirely new genres of 'difficult' fiction, the world of memoir and non-fiction is more unreal than ever. Join us at this workshop to explore ways to tease and play with your reader, to experiment with the truth, and for an exploration of how the world around us is not always what it seems...
