BECOMING A WRITER WITH MIRIAM HALAHMY



 
On Tuesday April 29th, Miriam Halahmy visited EGA to talk about ‘Becoming a Writer’ as part of our ongoing programme of talks. Miriam is the author of several books,  ranging from collections of poetry to her recent series of three books set on Hayling Island, Hidden Illegal and Stuffed. She talked about the inspiration for her novels, and read excerpts from Hidden and Stuffed, as well as getting two keen students, Lia and Mia to act out a piece from Hidden which she had rewritten as a play script. She ended her talk with her top five tips for writers.

The event was extremely enjoyable, and Miriam will be meeting more students from EGA in June, as Stuffed is being read as part of this year’s Pop -Up festival.
