VIRTUAL CLASS

Do you want to write about your experiences, but aren’t sure where to start? Short memoirs, or personal essays, can be the perfect way to tell your life story in bite-sized chunks. And with a little practice, they can be started (and sometimes finished) in an hour or less.

In The 60-Minute Memoir, local writer and journalist Jenn Walter will lead you through a series of fun, idea-generating exercises to kickstart your next personal essay. She’ll also discuss tips for writing quickly and strategies for overcoming writer’s block.
