I think the basics are essential. Thanks for the historical underpinning of memoir now. I would love to take that class analyzing those 4 landmark memoirs that remain unforgettable!❤️
I'm looking forward to hosting this foundational course with you, too! I know in our teaching, when the students reach that moment where they feel and see what writing a good scene does, when they understand the power of point of view to deliver a deep emotional experience, we can see the lights go on in a new way in their mind. A transformation through craft that most people don't expect. Learning and practicing the basics gives us that!
Angela's ashes is can't miss. But then I'm Irish : ) One thing Brooke, isn't memoir treated by publishers like other nonfiction? In other words, the book is accepted, THEN written.
I love Jeannine and follow her on Substack. She will be a wonderful addition to your team of stars.
Me too!! Love her.
Wonderful! All of this. So glad you are such a champion of memoir.

See you there, I hope! : )
I'm super excited. I've own all the books just haven't had a chance to read them. And I get to meet the authors. Thank you.

Not usually. Perhaps once upon a time, but not anymore. And yes, Angela's Ashes is amazing.
Thanks Brooke. Love memoirs
