This is a writing workshop that helps you convert family histories, memoirs and family stories into bedtime reading for the grandkids. In the first two sessions, we look at why and how to focus your project for this audience. In the third session we “workshop” participants’ stories.
Catherine Sajna is working on her own family stories. She has mentored university students’ writing for over 20 years.
NOTE: Bring a story of your own to class, whether you have written it down or not.
