Subject: Beginning Memoir Class at CCCC
Writing From Life: Session 1
Have an experience or memory you’re eager to share? Unsure of how to begin writing? This class will give you the tools, techniques, and prompts to help you weave your memories into a memoir. A balance of lecture, exercises, and detailed individual feedback on work will provide a firm grounding in all the basics of memoir writing.
Readings from some of the most fascinating contemporary memoirs will be provided and discussed. I’ll be teaching the class on Wednesday evenings, August 17 – October 5, 6:30 to 8:30. I am Melissa Delbridge, author of Family Bible (University of Iowa Press, 2008) and would love to have you join us. To register, call 919-545-8044. $135.
