Write Your Life – 2 Pages at a Time

In Person and Online Guided Memoir Writing Workshops

Has the idea of writing your life story been calling you? Does it feel too scary, overwhelming, or time consuming to begin? Or, do you just want a little support to get started?

Write Your Life workshops make the process of writing your autobiography easy. You will be guided and supported every step of the way as you write a series of short pieces based on provided themes. Questions and exercises will be included that prompt both your memory and creativity.

No writing experience is required. This course is for everyone.
