I believe that the genre of memoir, somewhat overused now, can be refreshed and made more relevant by considering the fact that when we write memoir we are in fact writing history. Especially as women, we have access to the forgotten or ignored cracks and crannies of life. We rely on research, especially with family documents and photographs—wills, letters, news stories, obituaries—of people “of no importance” whose crucial stories are so often left out of official histories.

The class meets in-person on Friday, April 26, 4:30-7:30PM and on Saturday & Sunday, April 27 & 28, 11:00AM–2:00PM

This class is suitable for intermediate level writers.

Registration for this in-person workshop is now open.
