Class Description

Description

Memoir writers excavate the past to recreate emotions, feelings, and events, weaving story from personal life experiences. But memory is often faulty. What happens when key memories create logjams, disappear into holes, or stubbornly refuse to surface? Explore the positives of when “problem” memories can actually be opportunities, beckoning us to dig deeper for stories from our innermost being – the heart. 

Participate in several guided exercises combining memory retrieval techniques with artistic and literary aspects of memoir. Acquire new tools for writing, research, and associative triggers that help dislodge. Learn how to make what you can’t remember work for you.

Note: Optional – Bring a short list of events you want to write about but don’t remember well. Time will be allotted for sharing and gentle feedback.
