Strategies for Editing your Memoir [Suzanne Morrison]
You have a first draft of a memoir or personal essay. What do you do now? We will look at methods for expanding and deepening your writing in revision. We’ll discuss how to read what’s actually on the page (as opposed to what you think is there), how to discover what’s been left out, and where you can go further, be bolder, or find humor in your true stories. Whether you have a first draft completed or want inspiration to get there, this class will help you see your work with fresh eyes.
