During this memoir course you will work toward completing a final, personal essay through a series of short, guided writing assignments focused on specific topics. In this workshop you will use and build on the writing tools you already have, get lots of feedback on your work, while also reading and thinking and commenting on weekly readings. You will learn to hone your ideas, experiences, and skills to build emotional impact into your personal stories.
