Take the time to sit down, reflect, and write about your life's journey. Everyone has a story in their life just waiting to be told!
Participants in this four-part virtual Guided Autobiography series will explore ways to share their stories, whether for themselves, their family, or a wider audience. With writing prompts and exercises that engage and stimulate memories, instructor Liz Dossa, opens a new window will inspire your creativity! Each session will have a theme, writing prompts, and exercises, as well as samples and methods to polish your own writing. While sharing your writing might be intimidating at first, Guided Autobiography builds a community of writers through supportive listening and positive feedback. No prior writing experience is required.
