Maybe you want to preserve the stories of your life for your family; maybe you want to to write them solely for yourself—to better understand what made you who you are, perhaps to help heal a hurt that won’t let go. Maybe you feel you have a story to tell that the wider world needs to know.

Memory Workshop invites you enter the satisfying process of getting those stories told. It offers practical insights about how writing works and a series of writing exercises to help you identify the moments of your life worth telling and find the voice to bring them to life on the page. Bring your notebook or laptop and Lyn Jones, Education Outreach Director and Co-Director of the Memoir Project, will teach you how to get started! (This price of this class includes a copy of the IWC’s publication Memory Workshop.)
