Continuing Education:
Writing and Speech
You don't need to be a writer to craft a memoir. The core of writing a memoir is the idea that we each have an individual, meaningful story to tell through a process involving remembering, reimagining, and recording the past. Students work on developing a style, presenting an authentic voice, and elevating personal experience into compelling prose. Learn how to bring focus and clarity to a memoir through writing exercises, analysis of memoirs, and guidance as well as through discussions of plot, structure, description, point of view, and dialogue.
