Do you want to dive into the process of writing your personal story, memoir, or micro-memoir?

Are you looking for a nurturing space to learn and practice the craft of writing and storytelling? 

This memoir writing workshop and community will help identify, organize, and distill the shimmering details of your story while enhancing your writing and ability to tell your story.

The biggest challenge with writing? The process and story struture can be mysterious and confusing.

But if you want to live up to something inside that says “Write!” you must.

In this course, you will receive the following:

• writing and story-telling
• a creative process that works for you
• 3 or 4 new writing pieces that you love

We will study examples of personal essays, micro-memoirs, memoirs, and the essential beats of storytelling. 

How do we craft a story vs. write a stream of consciousness?

Where to begin and end a story?

How do we structure something we’ve lived?

• writing & storytelling tools
• ways to access themes that matter most to you
• acknowledge your voice & style
