MEMOIR: WRITE YOUR STORYA 5-week in-person classEvery person has a story. Whether you want to honor someone who’s made a difference in your life, document unique experiences or travels, record your family history, or capture a particular slice of your life, this five-week class will help beginning or experienced writers put their stories on paper. This course will help you narrow the focus of your story, give it shape, and define its underlying theme. We’ll examine memoir techniques and pitfalls, and plenty of prompts and exercise will help you dig deeper into your life and mine important memories that add depth to your story. Class members will be asked to obtain a copy of the memoir The Liar’s Club by Mary Karr, which we will be discussing throughout the course.Saturdays, September 12, 19, 26, October 3, 10 from 9:30 am to 11:30 am

A book club for music fans: band memoirs, studio histories, genre guides and more. See online event calendar for details
---
If you like digging into backstories as much as listening to music, join us to discuss music-related books, documentaries, podcasts and more.
Because no one wants to spend time reading a book they don't like, there is no assigned title. Instead, you choose a book (or documentary, podcast, article, zine, etc.) that fits in with a monthly theme. When we get together, we'll all share the stories, songs, and clips we found. This kind of book club is a great way to get reading recommendations and discover new bands.
