Memoir writing isn't just for seasoned writers—it's for anyone in the midst of living a life.

In this hour-long session, you'll learn how to generate and develop ideas and themes for your personal memoir. We’ll explore techniques to manage your fears and introduce tools to help establish a solid writing practice. Don’t forget to bring a notebook and pen!
