Who are Guided Autobiography Workshops for?

My workshops are perfect for anyone who wants to tell their story—whether you’re writing for yourself, your family, or future generations. No writing experience is required. These sessions are supportive and designed for all ages and backgrounds.

What happened during a Guided Autobiography Workshop?

Each workshop session includes group discussions, gentle writing prompts, and time to share stories within the community of participants. I will help you recall memories, organize your thoughts, and start writing in a supportive, non-judgmental environment.

Do I need writing experience?

Not at all! Our workshops are designed for everyone, from complete beginners to seasoned storytellers. We focus on your authentic voice and memories, not grammar or style. You won’t be graded!!

What topics are covered in the workshops?

We cover a range of themes—childhood, family traditions, major life events, friendships, values, and more. Each week focuses on a specific topic to help you remember and reflect on your life’s journey.

My writing salons are focused on different themes, like holidays or friendship, or more

What if I’m not comfortable sharing my stories with the group?

Sharing is very much encouraged and a valuable part of the class community, but you are free to share as much or as little as you like. Many people find listening to others’ stories inspiring and supportive, even if they choose not to share.

 Can I create a memory book without attending a workshop?

Yes! I offer DIY memory book kits with video prompts, or you can schedule a one-on-one session for more personalized guidance.

Can I give a memory book or workshop as a gift?

Yes, our memory book kits and workshop gift certificates make meaningful, heartfelt gifts for birthdays, anniversaries, holidays, or any special occasion.
