In our June coffee and chat family history session we would particularly like to talk about writing up your family history. If you have experience in doing this, whether you have been on a course, self published, part way through this exercise (or somewhere along the process!), please do come along and share your knowledge.
- When is the right time to start writing?
- How much information do you need to have?
- Do you write just about specific people or an overview of the whole family, or perhaps both?
- How do you update your information?
- Do you use a particular software package?
- What about illustrating your stories?
- Just how many words is the 'right amount'?
- Do you reference your writing?
