Guest blog: “I spent a long time thinking my writing wasn’t worth sharing” at The Writer’s Workshop

I started the year with a guest blog for The Writer’s Workshop, reflecting on my early days fundamentally misunderstanding the purpose of a slam poetry competition, my charity work with Read Easy Sheffield and my journey to where I am today with my writing. You can read the blog, plus see this picture of me hangin’ out, over on TWW’s blog: I spent a long time thinking my writing wasn’t worth sharing — The Writers Workshop

Harley E. Ryley is a memoir writer, poet & accidental novelist. She is currently studying for her PhD in Creative Writing at the University of Sheffield and is funded by the Arts & Humanities Research Council via the White Rose College of Arts & Humanities. Her thesis will develop an innovative approach to memoir which plays with language, truth and rules, writing a meta-memoir on language-constructed selfhood. Sounds fun right?

Harley also uses her ‘proper job’ skills from her previous life as a Civil Servant to provide Business Development services to creative organisations. Check out ‘writing services’ to find out more.

Harley is a white 30-something woman with red wavy hair and wearing a white jumper. A red and blue block of flats is visible behind her.
