Writer Deanna Adams will help you glean the memories of your life and put them in chronological order to preserve personal history. She will share the key elements of storytelling, then have attendees write the first scene of their story using those elements. She'll also show you how to write dialogue that enhances your story, and how to utilize the five senses to bring your writing alive. If time, there will be several writing prompts to get you well on your way. Bring a pad of paper, and family photos to spark memories!
