SASFest: FELICE COHEN – FROM PAIN TO PUBLISHED: TURNING HEARTACHE INTO MEMOIR

Have you dreamed of writing a memoir about a painful experience, but didn’t know how or where to begin? Whether your dream is to publish your memoir, share it with family or just get it on paper, this workshop will help you narrow down your focus, outline and organize your story, and teach you numerous techniques using thought-provoking writing prompts to work through the discomfort that comes from writing about pain. Author Felice Cohen will touch upon examples from her own experience of heartache and loss and how she used writing to heal and create an award-winning memoir. Though we each have a unique experience; we can heal the same way: by writing down what hurts us.
