Over the past many days I've been building memoir workshops—the five-day, traveling,
unusually unusual workshop that I will launch next year (if you are interested, leave your name here), an online program being developed with a radically effective book-coaching friend, a two-evening program for the fourth and fifth graders of North Philly, the syllabus for my 2016 memoir course at Penn, and the two workshops I'll be delivering next Sunday and Monday in Frenchtown, NJ—one for
Book Garden (you can still register) and one for the local high school.
That building looks like this.
And it is far from done.
I spent my birthday in Frenchtown, NJ, this past April and fell so hard for the place that I wrote about it in the
Philadelphia Inquirer. Which led to an unexpected email from Caroline, an owner of the town's indie, the Book Garden, inviting me to return to this river town this November. I'll be conducting a memoir workshop and meeting with students in area schools. The memoir workshop, described above, will be held November 15 from 1 to 4 PM at The National Hotel. It has limited space, and if you are interested, I encourage you to sign up soon.
(For those unfamiliar with my memoir teaching and ideas, I share a link here to
Handling the Truth, my book about the making of memoir.)
