WRITE ABOUT YOUR LIFE
YOUR LOVED ONES WILL THANK YOU FOR PRESERVING YOUR MEMORIES

Have you ever considered that you'd like to write some of the significant memories from your lifetime to share with family members, grandchildren, great-grandchildren and beyond?  Many people frequently think about it, but never take the time to tackle what seems to be an overwhelming project.

As a Certified Lifewriting Instructor, I would be delighted to assist you through the process of bringing those distant memories into manuscript form.  We'll make it fun, interesting, and hopefully enjoyable!  This will be accomplished through group workshops, though I will also schedule select individual consultations. 

Emphasis will not be on the family tree, but on information--feelings, events, experiences, individuals who influenced your life, and values that you may wish to pass on to future generations.  Make certain that they will know exactly who you were!

If you believe that you might be interested in preserving your memories for loved ones, here is a little hint!  Start NOW by using a special note pad, and as you think of various stories or experiences that you would like to include in your manuscript, jot down just a one-liner that will jog your memory about these items so you will have a jump start on your project.  You can add to your list at your leisure, as thoughts spontaneously pop into your mind, rather than feeling pressure to recall.

    If you have any questions, please feel free to call me at (518) 441-8107, (843) 215-4676 or e-mail me at
info@awriterspresence.com or mbenedetto@sccoast.net.

REMEMBER---EVERY INDIVIDUAL HAS A UNIQUE HISTORY AND A WORTHY STORY TO WRITE!  I LOOK FORWARD TO HEARING FROM YOU!!

                  THE MINI-MEMOIR©
During 2010, it is my goal to introduce individuals and groups to The Mini-Memoir©.  Because I so strongly believe in helping our loved ones learn more about us, I developed a list of items that people can simply print and fill in their answers.  It can be the first baby step in generating interest in developing a more extensive memoir project, or it can be the single item of information that is passed along to the next generation.  This Mini-Memoir© works especially well for elderly folks who are unable to tackle a full memoir project.   I recommend printing these for groups of seniors, creating booklets of their completed pages, and distributing them so these individuals can learn more about each other, generating conversation and enabling them to discover various areas that they may have in common.  If you utilize The Mini-Memoir©, I'd love to hear about your experiences with it.   Please see below:
