Join us for a ten-week writing class focusing on memoir writing. NSDCGS member Jo Tipton will facilitate the participation-intensive class. A memoir does not need to be chronological nor should it read like an autobiography. It centers on an event or theme and is meant to inspire. A memoir contains two key elements: the truth of what happened and its ongoing significance in your life. It illustrates a common experience and leaves the reader to ponder.
The class is designed for the participants to share their writings and to have fun—no critiquing allowed. Although there is a suggested topic for each week, participants may write about anything they choose. By the end of the class, participants will have ten memoir essays.
Registration Required:
Because this is a popular class and space is limited, registration is required. Please register by emailing Mary Millet at [email protected] by January 5, 2024.
Topic for Week One:
A memorable conversation that had an impact on my life
Bring your essay to the first class. The memoir should run 250-500 words. Don’t wait to start; schedule times to write; write everyday.
