Misc. Events
FREE MEMOIR WRITING WORKSHOP
Cypress Historical Society at Cypress Top Historic Park running through
October and November from 10:30 AM to 12 PM. Everyone has a story and
everyone has memories. Some of them are good. Others are not so good.
But, all of them are valuable. This workshop is about preserving your family
history, one memory at a time. With the help of your teacher, coach and
mentor you will learn to jar those faded memories loose, then compose,
organize, preserve and share them electronically for future generations.
Jackie Devine loves working with active writers and people who have
never tried to write! This course will help you understand the memoir
writing process: story structure, scenes, dialogue, character development,
tone and voice. You’ll learn that you are creating a legacy. If desired, stories
will be recorded and saved online where family and friends can enjoy them
for years to come. Located behind Juergen’s Hall Community Center, 26026
Hempstead Hwy., Cypress, TX 77429, phone 713-274-3188. Harris County,
Precinct 3 Steve Radack, Commissioner, www.pct3.com.
