The personal writing workshop (PWW) meets monthly for discussions and explorations of “personal writing” — a form that includes diaries, journals, vignettes, essays, family histories, meditative reflections, and chapter and book length memoirs.

People engage in personal writing for many reasons: to explore and develop their thoughts about particular experiences; to capture treasured memories or stories; to record the details of their unique family history or travel adventures, and so on.

The PWW monthly meetings provide a structure for exploring personal writing through discussion of short readings by professional writers and through sharing of personal writings by section members based on monthly prompts.

The section meets every 3rd Wednesday of each month at 4:00 PM October through May.

If interested, please email Jody Foster. Her contact information is in the  Membership Directory and the monthly Preview newsletter.
