What Will I Learn?

• Imagine yourself being able to give your life story to loved ones as a gift. Can you picture how pleased they will be to have a written record of family stories and anecdotes. They will be able to share these stories for generations and be so grateful you took the time out of your busy life to think of them.
• You will be able to sort through the many stories and tales and recognize which ones you really want to describe in detail. You will be able to anchor time, place, events and what is going on in society at the time to paint a verbal picture for your reader.

Requirements

• You do not need to be a writer to take this course. You do need to have a message or story you would like to tell. This will only require your willingness to look inward, put butt in chair, fingers on keyboard and just let it flow. We write fast and edit later. I hope you will enjoy this class as much as I enjoy teaching it to hundreds of people around the country who have wanted to write a short book fast. In the last segment, I will share how to go about publishing or having the book printed if you so desire. Please join us. You will always be glad you did.

Target audience

• Baby-boomers, young professionals, grandparents, new parents, aunties, uncles and people who have a message to share with others.
• Writing about your life is very therapeutic and you may find after completing this course, you don't want to share the manuscript with anyone. You will find answers to life-long questions and a platform to express your thoughts and examine your life.
