Memory as Material with Maggie Smith

In this generative nonfiction class, we’ll work on creating art from life, using our memories as material. How do we get to the heart of a lived experience on the page? How can we feel comfortable and confident sharing our personal lives with a public audience? What craft elements can we lean on? If you’ve ever asked yourself these questions, this workshop is for you. We’ll discuss short pieces of creative nonfiction, and we’ll use those models as inspiration as we begin our own pieces. Don't miss this amazing chance to hone your craft with Maggie Smith! Purchase Maggie's books via Auntie's Bookstore!
