Magic of Memory 1 with Rayya Liebich
ONLINE
4 Classes: May 8, 15, 22, 29
Wednesdays: 6:30 – 8:30 pm
Course Description:
We often recall memories in fragments. By accessing our scattered memories and borrowing the container of non-linear structures, we can record our life stories in authentic and innovative ways.
Each week we will explore a different literary form (prose poetry, flash non-fiction, epistolary writing, and the hermit crab essay) to enter our material sideways and find new shapes to unpack our experiences.
Each class will include a study of the craft, guided writing prompts, and readings by authors who push the boundaries of hybrid creative non-fiction forms.
If you are working on a difficult memoir, or looking for new ways to tell your familiar stories, this series will give you a chance to play, experiment, and come back to the magic of memory and the importance of meaning-making.
