Writing to Remember Yellow

Moderator: Francie Borden

Details

PURPOSE:

This section of Writing to Remember (WTR), while open to all, is especially intended to encourage first-timers to explore the process.

DESCRIPTION:

Writing and memory intersect in this seminar. Each prompts the other and can lead to gaining confidence in our writing while gaining insights into our memories. We will also spend some of our time together exploring and improving our practice of critique and how to make it relevant and helpful to the whole group. Writing is shared by email in advance as well as read aloud by the author. Each participant chooses the format, style, genre, and content of his or her submission and specifies the feedback desired.

ROLE OF PARTICIPANTS: Participants will have two opportunities to read their work aloud. Work of any length is acceptable; however, the length presented in our meeting will be limited to the amount of time we are each allowed for sharing. All participants participate in the feedback discussions.

RESOURCES:

None.
