From the faculty of the In the Rough writing program, Julie Gieseke and Patti Digh, this interactive, fast-paced program will be largely experiential with a lot of writing and sharing. It is designed for a sense of completion and doneness by the end of our three hours together.
Objectives:
-
Learn how to use first and third person to get to the core of your memoir’s voice
-
Discover the “whatness” at the center of your story and have that drive the writing
-
Articulate more clearly the story arc of your memoir
-
Explore the ways sensory detail enlivens a story
-
Frame one scene in different emotional language and/or from the perspectives of different characters to discover what that means for your particular story
