Have you ever wondered about how to best use your life in your writing, whether it’s memoir or autobiographical fiction? This workshop will discuss what questions to ask yourself in order to generate ideas, how to create healthy boundaries between real life and the written word/world, and how to best take care of yourself and the people in your life during the process.
The focus of this workshop is on problem-solving, sparking new ideas, and engaging in questions and answers to help with future work. You will leave with some prompts for future writing exercises and renewed excitement about the project you’re working on.
Extended Q&A after the talk so bring all your questions!
