Writing: Memoir & Narrative (Northeast) ONLINE


Adult Enrichment / Writing -
Adult Enrichment Spring 2025

Writing about your own life can take many forms: personal essay, novel-length memoir, short stories, online blog, 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 conflict and action, creating specificity and detail, and building scenes and structure. Taught by writer/actor/storyteller Amy Salloway.
