Start developing your project in a supportive environment with expert guidance from writer and tutor Lucie Brownlee. \nThrow yourself into writing your memoir\n\n\nEach workshop will explore a different element of craft\, from research\, planning\, and ethics to challenging memories and finding your own distinct voice. Sessions will incorporate lively discussion and timed writing exercises linked to each weekly topic. Peer feedback and the sharing of work are two of the most helpful (and admittedly daunting!) ways to develop and improve your writing. With this in mind\, you will complete weekly homework of 1000 words maximum\, which you will be invited share and discuss\, in rotation\, with the rest of the group. \n\nIs this the right course for me?\n\nThis course is suitable for writers who are just starting out\, and for those who wish to continue developing their work. You may have been considering your memoir for years\, even decades – squirreling away fragments or working by yourself. Or perhaps you’ve always wondered about how to turn your ideas into a fully realised book-length work\, but don’t know where to begin. Either way\, you want to take your craft to the next level – and this course is the place to do it. \n\nAbout your Tutor\nLucie is a multi-award-winning writer based in County Durham. Her memoir Life After You was published in 2014 by Penguin Random House. Based on her award-winning blog ‘Wife After Death’ (Blog North Awards 2013)\, it is a Sunday Times best seller and was a Richard and Judy Autumn Book Club pick 2015. \nHer pilot TV script Wife After Death won Best New Comedy Script in the All3Media New Voice Awards 2021 and is now in development with Objective Fiction and Channel 4. \nHer novel The Mother was one of the final four in Mslexia’s Novel Competition 2020\, and in 2018 she was awarded one of three Northern Writers’ Awards for Fiction for her novel-in-progress The Song of Annie Chapman. \nHer short stories – ‘T-Shirt Weather’ and ‘Late Night Final’ – were shortlisted in the Guardian Short Story competition and Soho House Magazine respectively.

SUMMARY:Magic Castles
DESCRIPTION:Magic Castles are an American neo-psychedelic rock band from Minneapolis\, MN. The group is well-versed in the ways of blissfully floating psychedelically-inclined folk-rock. Gentle harmonies float above twanging guitar and farfisa organ.Their songs have an optimistic and light tone\, but the guitars often jangle and crash with the best of them. There’s a little for psych heads of all tastes\, and a lot to like for anyone who appreciates softer psych intonations with a distinct pop sheen. \n\nTravel\, as spiritual experience in real environments\, and the sound between the space and the audience have been central themes of their works. The family’s yearly pilgrimages inform every aspect of their art. \n\nFFOs: The Allah Las / Spacemen 3 / Tess Parks / HP Lovecraft \n\n\n\nFor more gigs: https://linktr.ee/wanderingoakuk

SUMMARY:History of Lead Mining in the North East - Les Turnbull Book Launch
DESCRIPTION:Join us at The Common Room with NEIMME to celebrate the launch of Les Turnbull’s new book The History of Lead Mining in the North East. \nLes Turnbull’s book ‘The History of Lead Mining in the North East of England’ was first published in 1975. This fourth edition has been greatly enlarged by the addition of new chapters and the volume is now printed in colour throughout. This is a companion volume to ‘Coals from Newcastle’ and is an essential guide to the mineral mines of the northern Pennines. \nThe first half of the book provides an historical introduction and a description of all the principal processes involved in the mining\, dressing and smelting of lead ore. Throughout\, it deals with the communities established in the dales and the lives of the men and women connected to the industry. The second section provides ideas from exploring the region by car and on foot. There are numerous historical and contemporary photographs as well as maps to aid those who wish to explore the industrial archaeology of the lead dales. \nCopies of the book will be available to purchase at £15.00 alongside Les’s other past publications. \nBooking information\nEach person attending\, including adults accompanying children\, must have their own ticket. \nTickets are free\, but if you would like to make a small donation to support the charitable work of The Common Room\, it would be hugely appreciated. \nAdditional information\nLocation: The Common Room\, Westgate Road\, Newcastle NE1 1SE \nChildren must be supervised at all times by a responsible adult. \nOur building is fully accessible – if you have any queries about accessibility\, please contact luca.cepollaro@thecommonroom.org.uk
