Intro to Memoir at the Durham Arts Council begins on September 13th. Register now!
Local writers,
I'm teaching Intro to Memoir again at the Durham Arts Council and it starts on September 13th.
Intro to Memoir at the Durham Arts Council
6 weeks, Tuesday evenings, 6:30pm - 8:00pm, September 13th - October 18th, 2022
Registration closes September 10th, 2022.
Our lives consist of millions of stories, both ordinary and extraordinary. In this class you will learn to craft those moments into compelling personal narratives. Using prompts and selected reading materials, this class will cover such topics as: getting started, voice, situation vs. story, and revision. Participants will have the opportunity to share their work in a supportive workshop setting and connect with a local writing community. Please bring a pen/pencil and paper/notebook to class or a laptop.
I taught this class last spring and it was so much fun and such a wonderful opportunity to launch a longer piece of personal writing with the support of a writing community. Come prepared to write, to ask “why” and to share with others. And if that sounds scary I’m here to light the way.
Last I checked, there were 6 spaces left in this class.
