Have you ever wanted to write your memoir, but didn’t know where to start? Do you feel like it’s an overwhelming task even if you have given it a try? Lylanne Musselman, an award-winning poet, playwright, and visual artist, will help you get your memoir jump-started. 

You’ll discover how you can write a memoir using poems, or a combination of both prose and poems. You’ll learn to write from prompts that will “capture your life” and help you get your memories on the page. Engage with fellow participants to exchange ideas, tackle concerns, and celebrate epiphanies. Start piecing together your manuscript, whether it's for publication, a heartfelt family gift, or simply for your own fulfillment.
