Memories Worth Remembering II
Writing Workshop

Saturdays at 2:00 PM

For the past two years, the Library has hosted a yearly writing workshop led by local author Paul Stansbury. One of the workshops, which was called ‘Memories Worth Remembering,’ focused on learning to write personal recollections. As a follow-up to the success of this workshop, the library wanted to give aspiring writers the chance to participate once more.

Beginning on Saturday, January 11, Stansbury will lead this four-part series that will provide a creative forum where writers can discuss ideas, receive feedback, and learn how to write about their recollections.

At the first session, Stansbury will walk through the writing process. The writers, armed with that information, will then head off to work on writing one or more short recollections (500-2,000 words each) about a life experience. The other weekly sessions will be used for getting feedback and individualized assistance from Stansbury. Additional sessions will be held on January 18, 25, and February 1 at 2:00 p.m. at the library.

Workshop participants will also have the opportunity to have their stories published in a small chapbook which will be added to the library’s collection.

Writing workshops at the library are free and intended to be accessible for all. Novice and experienced writers are welcome!
