Travel Memoir

Travel memoir allows you to relive your favorite adventures and share them with readers. This workshop will teach you how to identify the most compelling parts of your travel story and organize them into an essay or a full-length book. We’ll focus on the creation of vivid scenes and characters, learn how to craft plot and theme, and discuss the ethics involved in writing about the people we’ve met on our journeys.
