WCYR Blue Pencil
zoomWhat is a “Blue Pencil” session? It’s an opportunity to work with a published author, in a small group setting (Zoom), to get feedback on a WIP (work in progress).
We have gathered a fantastic group of WCYR Member-Authors & Friends who are eager to share what they have learned, and help guide you on your own writing journey.
Participation will require pre-registration before December 1st.
Mastering Memoir: “It’s Not Me, It’s You.”
zoomAre you looking to craft your personal story and elevate it into art? It can be challenging to write life stories that keep readers fully engaged and turning the page. One of Alison's many insights is that at its best, your memoir is not about you. It's about your reader. Alison is a multiple award-winning author, playwright, and performer. With her enthusiastic, humorous, presentation style, Alison will share tricks of the trade to telling your open-hearted truth in a way that resonates with your reader. She will debunk some common myths and beliefs about memoir. She will offer insights and guidance about how to deal with the obstacles and challenges that face even the most experienced memoir writers.
