Thanks to all who attended The Magic of Memoir workshop last Saturday (September 15, 2018) at the PNWA Writer’s Conference. I mentioned that I would share a resource sheet—contact information for some of the teachers who’ve helped me and inspired my writing journey. It is below!
I am also available to help you outline your narrative arc, get clear on what your story is about, and provide overall feedback on your project. I also enjoy editing personal essays so let me know if you could use my help.
