Writing: Memoir & Narrative (Northeast) ONLINE
Writing about your own life can take many forms: novel-length memoir, short stories, Substack, even performance monologues. This all-levels class uses writing exercises, readings and discussion to cover the vital tools that make narrative writing compelling and memorable: finding the heart of your story, identifying action and conflict, building scenes and structure, and creating vivid details. Taught by writer/actor/storyteller Amy Salloway.
