YOUR STORY IS WORTH WRITING
About this Event
You don't have to tell your whole life story. You just have to know which story you're ready to tell.
Everyone has a story—but sometimes the hardest part is knowing where to begin.
Your Story Is Worth Writing is an interactive memoir writing workshop designed for aspiring writers who are ready to explore their experiences, identify the story they want to tell, and begin putting it on paper.
Whether you've dreamed of writing a memoir for years, have pages tucked away somewhere, or simply know you've lived through something worth sharing, this workshop will help you move from "One day I'm going to write a book" to actually beginning.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO WRITE ABOUT EVERYTHING.
One of the biggest misconceptions about memoir is that you have to start at birth and tell your entire life story.
You don't.
Your memoir might center around:
- A defining season of your life
- Something you survived or overcame
- A major transition or reinvention
- Family, relationships, motherhood or caregiving
- Career or educational experiences
- Grief, healing or personal growth
- A lesson that changed your life
- An experience that could encourage someone else
During this workshop, we'll uncover the story within your story.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
During this interactive writing experience, you'll:
Discover Your Story
Explore the experiences, turning points and themes that could become the foundation of your memoir.
Find Your Why
Determine why you want to tell this story—and who needs to read it.
Narrow Your Focus
Learn how to choose what belongs in your memoir without trying to tell your entire life story.
Create Your Roadmap
Begin organizing important moments, scenes and experiences into a structure you can continue developing.
Start Writing
You'll have dedicated writing time during the workshop, so you won't leave with just an idea.
Explore the Road to Publication
We'll briefly discuss what happens after the manuscript—including editing, book production, publishing and distribution.
YOU'LL LEAVE WITH
By the end of the workshop, you'll have:
✓ A clearer memoir concept
✓ Your central theme and purpose
✓ A defined reader
✓ Key stories and moments to include
✓ A preliminary book structure

✓ A roadmap for what to do next
Most importantly, you'll have started.
