So You Want to Write a Memoir?

Everyone has a memoir inside of them, but sometimes it takes a little support and prodding to help us bring our truth to the page. In this workshop, we’ll discover how to tap into vulnerability, heartache, love, and loss to share the stories only we can tell.

So You Want to Write a Memoir? Maybe you’ve drafted a handful of chapters. Maybe you jot down notes on your phone or scribble lists on a sketchpad in your car. Maybe you already have the photo picked out for your book jacket. Now what? How do you actually write the book?

Planning, pitching, and publishing a memoir can be lonely work, but it is also absolutely do-able and wonderfully rewarding. In this workshop, we’ll get moving on our memoirs. We’ll jumpstart creative juices and put ourselves on the path to success.

Each week, we’ll study one facet of memoir and apply that technique in our own storytelling. In addition to generating new material, everyone will leave this workshop with a sample book proposal and the inspiration needed to write the stories only you can tell.

ONLINE. Tuesdays, 7PM ET/ 4PM PT. Learn more and sign up HERE.
