"Structuring Your Memoir"
A workshop for writing a compelling personal story.
A memoir can be tricky to write. It's not an autobiography. It's not a junk drawer of every experience you've ever had.
In this 60-minute workshop Melissa and Dave identify the options for structuring your memoir. You'll come away with a simple framework to help start your project. You will learn how to sort through the stories of your life and create a narrative arc for completing your book.
As part of the workshop, you will receive a memoir activity worksheet prior to the event. The activity will help you apply what you learn in the workshop to your writing project.
