Course Description
There’s a reason memoir is the top selling nonfiction category today: stories of self-discovery teach resilience, help us feel less alone, and are testaments to how we survive. When we write memoir we get the unique opportunity to reflect on our lived experience and explore the pivotal moments that shaped us. Over the course of our four sessions together we will outline the events that make up the core of your narrative, excavate the resonance in memories that won’t let you go, practice writing about loved ones and ourselves with nuance, and experiment with structure. Through writing prompts, short in-class readings, excerpts from acclaimed memoirists, and supportive class discussion you will build a memoir writing cohort and begin to craft your own singular story of becoming.Loading...
