It's An Event

Today, I paused and took a deep breath and broke out into a wide smile. I had just clicked on the Chicago Public Library web site that lists my upcoming Memoir Writing Workshop as an "event."

There's something about that word "event" that got to me. I've been attending events at the Harold Washington Library for years and heard many great writers talking about their new books. I've browsed the stacks at my local library. I'm using the business section to help me in the marketing of this freelance business.

And now, here I am. How cool is that?

Memoir Writing

One of the ways I am helping people with their writing is when they want to write a memoir. Memoirs can take many forms and address many subjects. All you need is your memories, your perspective and some time to get it down on paper.

Don't think you have to be a professional writer. You can create a memoir just for yourself or for your family. The act of putting your ideas and opinions out there is enormously liberating!

Memoir writing inspires reflection, sparks connections, creates meaning. As I have said from the start: "Everyone has a story to tell."
