Memoir Writing Group

Explore the modern and popular craft of memoir writing. Every person has a story to tell. No matter your age, education, family, or location, your life is filled with tales big and small.

Through workshopping and class critiques, students will explore how to shape their memories into cohesive and compelling narratives. Topics will include character development, setting a scene with vivid descriptions, authentic dialogue and emotion, building your story arc, and compelling opening sentences.

Bring a laptop, iPad, or pen and paper to each session. Participants will share short writing assignments each week.
