Writing our stories helps us understand our lives and our connection to the world. This 2.5-hour workshop builds upon the theme within Roger Mooking: SoundBites: three life cycles – The Learning, The Living, and The Leaving. Led by Anne Bokma, it offers instruction, inspiration, journal prompts, writing exercises, and self-reflection.
New writers will find a kickstart to their life stories, while experienced writers will be inspired to delve deeper into memoir writing. Join us for a therapeutic and transformational experience that highlights the healing power of writing our personal narratives.
Anne Bokma is an award-winning journalist, author, columnist, and memoir writing coach based in Hamilton. She founded The 6-Minute Memoir, a “speed storytelling for a cause” event, and has received multiple accolades, including the Hamilton Literary Awards and the City of Hamilton Arts Award for Established Writers.
