Memoir Reading & Writing Club

Have you ever wanted to write a memoir?  Do you enjoy reading memoirs?  If your answer is yes, then this is the club for you!  This will be part book club (reading examples of memoirs and personal essays), and part writing workshop.  We will discuss what makes a good or bad memoir and how to get started; we will read published examples of book-length memoirs and personal essays; we will read non-fiction books on strategies for how to write; and we will workshop pieces of your own writing, getting feedback on your writing from the entire group.

Bring a notebook.

Our book for June is Fierce Attachments by Vivian Gornick.  Call the library to reserve your copy at 989-755-0904 or order your copy from Amazon or Barnes & Noble or similar.
