Are you searching for traces as a relative of a victim of the Nazi ‘euthanasia’ program and have gathered documents? Do you wonder how to turn the sober files into a living story? How to bring structure and order into the material? Do you not know how to begin or get stuck while writing? These problems can be solved: on the one hand through craft that anyone can learn, on the other through creative methods. Both are taught in our writing workshop.
We deal with biographical writing that is based on facts. We set out in search of the life behind the facts. We learn how to give our story a framework and a form, how to develop a common thread, how to order the material and fill it with life. Finally, we practise the craft of writing. It is about comprehensibility, the effect of words, sentence structure, language and style.
