SUMMARY:Memoir Writing Class - Virtual
DESCRIPTION:This class will guide you towards centering on one segment of your life and turning it into a compelling story\, whether your goal is to share it with family and friends or to publish it for a wider audience. Each session includes time to practice writing that month’s lesson and to give and receive gentle\, constructive feedback. Between class sessions\, you will also have the opportunity to discuss articles on memoir writing and to share your writing with other students and the instructor for a more comprehensive response.
