We love fictional stories, but there's something different about reading a true story. And something special about reading the true story from the person who actually lived it. That's why we love memoirs.
If you have a story from your life that you want to tell, join us for this 4 week class to make a plan for how to craft that story into a memoir!
This class will feature weekly lectures and writing exercises along with helpful tools to kickstart your memoir writing journey!
