Masterclass Recording: Writing From Professional Experience

Fire fighters, nurses, cleaners, brain surgeons, fighter pilots, teachers, carers . . . Over the past ten years there has been a huge appetite for non-fiction books capturing the unique experiences of peoples’ work lives. Join Dr Rachel Clarke for this inspiring Masterclass in which she will share with you some of the tools to create a compelling narrative from your professional experience. How do you know which parts of your work will be interesting for others to read? What makes your experience in your role of wider interest to readers? What are the ethical and legal implications of sharing your professional life on the page? Why are you the perfect person to tell this story and how can you make the professional personal and into a must-read narrative? How do you avoid becoming too jargonistic? Using her own experience of having carved out three books shining a light on the world of the doctor, Rachel will guide and inspire you to turn to your own experience and breathe life into writing about it.
