Take a memoir piece from prompt to published in a fun group setting!
Write the essays you've been meaning to write, or begin your book at last!
We'll begin the series with writing prompts and studying memoir essays to get your creative juices flowing, followed by a full-day writing retreat where you'll be able to really devote time to your writing. During the retreat, you can sign up with me for one-on-one coaching. We can brainstorm your piece together, find personal writing prompts just for you, or discuss whatever writing issue is utmost on your mind. Following the retreat, you will continue to receive writing support via our Facebook group and optional live group writing sessions.
Next, we'll critique each other's work and help one another take a piece to the next draft stage. As a critiquer, you'll learn to help your fellow writers identify what their story is about (what urgent question is being asked, answered, and what's at stake?), what parts worked, and where we'd like more details. Finally, we'll share our finished pieces aloud in a fun Zoom party!
