How do you write a memoir? We've asked local author Tricia Booker to tell us how she did it. Tricia will read selections from her new book, The place of Peace and Crickets: How adoption, heartache, and love built a family. (https://www.amazon.com/Place-Peace-Crickets-Tricia-Booker/dp/1940189187) She'll also share tips and techniques that have helped her along the way, and we'll apply these ideas to some of our own stories.

Refreshments and book-signing will follow. Enjoy artwork by our two featured local artists, Joyce Gabiou (https://joycegabiou.com) and Jennifer Bothast (http://www.jenniferbothast.com/carousel.php?galleryID=236406) while we mingle.

This workshop is free for participants who have signed up for our Fall Mini-Series on Memoir (register now on Meetup while we still have spots available!). Otherwise, the fee is $45. Please reserve your spot ahead of time as seating will be limited.

Tricia's book is tender and candid and the writing is whip-smart. Check out her blog at TriciaBooker.com. (http://triciabooker.com)
