Memoir Writing Workshop: The Power of Specificity

Monday, August 10 at 6:00pm

Participants will learn to extract vivid, sensory-rich moments from their lives and transform them into compelling short-form essay or prose. Through guided exercises, discussion, and writing time, the workshop cultivates a “show, don’t tell” approach—encouraging writers to let detail, imagery, and memory carry emotional meaning.
