Memoir Writing Workshop with Nick Jaina @ Pavilion at Sou'wester Lodge
Jul 16 @ 10:00 am – 2:00 pm
Memoir Writing Workshop with Nick Jaina @ Pavilion at Sou'wester Lodge

Let’s write some memoir! This workshop will help us move past resistance and start to unlock memories and develop them into stories. The key is to start to understand the events of your life into elements that you can use to tell the most effective story you can. Let’s get into some of the particulars of how memoir functions and do some writing in class to get momentum with our stories.

Nick Jaina is a writer and musician living with his family in Oakland, California. He was a finalist for the Oregon Book Award in 2015 for his memoir Get It While You Can. He has composed music for film and ballet, and toured the world playing a unique mixture of music soundscapes, songs, and readings.

Workshop cost $20
