My Mini Memoirs
A writing program to evoke short personal essays, healing narratives, and storytelling events.
What is My Mini Memoirs?
My Mini Memoirs is an expressive writing program designed to unlock short personal stories about life, love, grief, loss, and everything in between. Program options include:
Introductory workshops
Multi-session class series
Writing groups
Performance opportunities/storytelling events
Whether you are a new or experienced writer, the focus is more on getting your thoughts out and your stories down than critiquing your work. However, some writing tips will be shared to bring some structure and life to your pages.
Each session includes writing prompts to spark stories highlighting different ages, stages, defining moments, and more.
If you enjoy camaraderie and having a creative space to write and share stories, please sign up!
