The Yin and Yang of Memoir Writing:

a mini-memoir workshop

with author/activist

Jan Phillips

**Please note all times are listed in EST**

Open/Download Flyer

Writing a memoir is a full bodied experience. It includes the deep interior (yin) work of harvesting your life experience to unearth the jewels hidden in your caverns of darkness. It also brings up questions regarding the outer (yang)

aspects of the creative enterprise:
do you need an agent?
how do you find a publisher?
should you self publish?
who is your audience?
where should you start?

This hands on experience will answer the questions you have about writing your memoir and start you on the path.
