This 2 day experience will help you write the stories of your life in an easy, engaging and fun way. We all want to be remembered and we all want to know ourselves better. This class will unlock the memories that you really want to share, and teach you where and how to share them.
The pandemic may have many of us feeling that these times are dark and frightening. However, we have all had difficult times before. Telling those stories, the difficult ones, can help us see how to get through these times, and may help others as well.
This project can begin at any age, and all are welcome.
Each day will begin with a soul gathering experience.
Warning: This class will be a lot of fun! (yes, even difficult stories can be fun)

October 1 - Day One
We will explore the differences between personal stories, memoir, and ethical wills. After discussion we will share techniques and actually start writing! You will leave with the beginning of your story and instructions for proceeding.
October 8 - Day Two
At home you will continue to write the story you started, and perhaps some others as well. Back in class we will share these stories. We will discuss editing, purpose, and alternative methods of recording. Feed back will be available and the teaching will center on how to color in the spaces and move your stories forward.
