Writing Memoir: Emerging From the Muddle in the Middle (FULL)

NOTE: This class is now full, and we are no longer accepting registrations. Sorry! In the meantime, we invite you to check out our other offerings, sign up for our newsletter, and become a member to be the first to hear about newly added classes

You've been working on your memoir (or perhaps the process has stalled). In either case, this course comes with the following sessions to enhance and revitalize your work: Assessing Your Progress; Examining Your Scope; Analyzing Your Story Arc; Refining Your Characters, Setting, and Dialogue; Breaking Through the Muddle in the Middle; and Putting the Pieces Together. Each week will include an in-class writing exercise that can be discussed in class. You can share as much or as little of your assignment as you'd like (given time constraints) to receive feedback in a positive, welcoming environment while also having opportunities to discuss how these exercises help with your memoir writing. The goal is to help nurture a memoir manuscipt in the middle stages to something closer to a finished work.
