Workshop Description:

Have you ever wanted to leave a written legacy, start a memoir, gain perspective on a life transition? Are you curious about exploring your life through the medium of story?

Using prompts, exercises and in-class activities, we will use the Guided Autobiography method to explore life themes two pages at a time. By the end of the six-week class, participants will have completed 10+ pages of writing.

This course creates a comfortable environment for students of all levels. Beginners appreciate the simple tips designed to stimulate their writing. More experienced writers welcome the regular assignments that keep them moving forward.

Participants share weekly two-page vignettes in small groups and provide mutual support and encouragement.

Class Requirements: A computer, smart tablet or smartphone with Internet and a microphone. Participants must be able to write two pages each week on a life theme and read it
aloud.
