Madeleine Ferre
THE TEACHING THAT I DO
I empower women writers by guiding them towards taking control of their narratives and building confidence in their craft, with the aim of dismantling the traditional structures built to keep female voices out of the house of fiction.
I strive to create an environment where women can find the courage and skills to tell their stories and be heard.

Because we no longer believe that the traditional stories are true, we can no longer write tidy, beginning-middle-end fiction, even if this means that we must “write notebooks rather than masterpieces”.
— Virginia Woolf
My New Membership
There are several key things I wish I would have known years ago about Narrative theory, or narratology, the study of narrative as a genre — and about the potential relationship(s) between gender and narrativity.
In my new membership, I teach you what those things are. This will put you years ahead of where you are now and save you so much time and money.
We examine patterns of narration in a wide range of novels by women from England, France, and the United States from the 1900s to the present, drawing on narratological and feminist theory.
Membership sites are different from traditional online courses. Instead of creating one set curriculum, I’ll continuously add new content to update the site.
Why using Thinkific and not a self-hosted platform?
Thinkific simplifies the tech part of the membership so much that I’m able to focus on marketing and providing the best value possible to my audience in order to grow our community.
