Memoir Jumpstart [Beth Slattery]

Introductory | If you’ve been meaning to write the story of your life but haven’t yet had the courage to commit it to the page, this course will give you the jumpstart you need. Through reading examples, in-class exercises, and discussion, we will cover description, character, voice, structure, and dramatic tension. Students will leave class with two pages of their memoir committed to paper and a concrete plan and new skills to see it to completion.
