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.
Please check this web site periodically, as workshop schedules will be appearing in the future. 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!!
