Transfers ToCSUDescriptionStudents learn the primary structures of memoir writing, including chronology, theme, and tension. Students read full-length memoirs by published writers in order to outline and compose their own memoirs. Students learn to recognize and explore memories and experiences, decide what to include and exclude in their writing process and discover new meanings from their pasts, which give perspectives to the present. All material is submitted in a supportive workshop atmosphere designed to help writers formulate, design, and construct their own memoir.
