Memoir Workshop: My Story Matters

This monthly writing program invites you to explore and preserve your personal stories. The program includes guided writing prompts, discussion of memoir techniques, and supportive feedback in a welcoming environment. Participants will practice turning memories into vivid scenes and learn revision strategies that strengthen their writing.

Writers of all levels are encouraged to join. Attendees will leave each session with new pages, practical tools, and inspiration to keep developing their work at home. The workshop also fosters connection among participants, creating a community of storytellers who value both listening and sharing.
