Writing Workshop: Memoir and Memories in Short Story Format

Writing Workshop: Memoir & Memories in Short Story Format 
First session: Sunday, August 25, 2024
10:00 AM - 12:00 PM

Join us for a memoir-workshop especially designed for older adults over 60, but welcome to all. You can attend one workshop or the whole series. These are small attempts at getting life's big stories and experiences into words. Practitioner Karen Schmidt will help facilitate memory hunting and putting your words on paper. Short, brief writing will be done in workshops. Together with others, we will start to probe the cobwebs of memories that are just begging to be written down. Do this for your memory and the memory you want others to know about. Promises to be an intimate space where we can write the truths of our lives.  MaTovu can provide lined paper, pencils, and pens, but feel free to bring your own. Bring a friend or neighbor. This event is open to all Jewish and non-Jewish community members.

Karen Schmidt comes to writing from a very personal place. Introduced to Journaling at a young age was a skill that has carried her through many of life's trials, hills, valleys, and joy!
