SUMMARY:Getting Started on Your Memoir
DESCRIPTION:This four-week class meets Saturdays\, 10 AM-12 PM\, on Saturdays\, April 4\, 11\, 18\, and 25. \n\n\n\nWe human beings are storytelling animals\, and everyone has a story to tell. In fact\, each of us has many stories—our lives are made up of events and experiences\, families and relationships\, and oh! the memories we hold. Memoir offers us a way to capture and share our real-life stories. \n\n\n\nIn this four-part class\, we’ll explore the heart of memoir writing: discovering which story wants to be told and finding the best way to tell it. Through engaging in-class exercises and relaxed free-writing sessions\, you’ll put pen to page (or fingers to keyboard) and begin bringing your experiences to life. You’ll learn fiction techniques that make stories sing—description\, scene\, character\, and setting—and discover the many ways to structure your unique narrative. \n\n\n\nBy the end of our four weeks together\, you’ll have identified the story you most want to tell and the approach that suits your voice and style. Best of all\, you’ll do this within the welcoming\, friendly space of our workshop\, where we’ll share ideas\, support one another\, and celebrate the courage it takes to tell our truths. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the instructor \n\n\n\nJudy Reeves is an award-winning writer and teacher who has published four books on the craft including A Writer’s Book of Days and Wild Women\, Wild Voices\, and a memoir\, When Your Heart Says Go.
