Palm of the Hand Memoir Workshop

Service Description

Join visiting arts educator, writer, and publisher Michael Czarnecki for a writing workshop in Palm of the Hand Memoir. Everyone has stories to share and many people have a desire to write about their life. Wanting to write and doing so are two different things. Often we get stuck on the immensity of such a project. This workshop will help to make that desire a reality. This workshop helps participants decide what to write about their lives using a method Michael calls "palm-of-the-hand" writing, after the "palm-of-the-hand" stories of Japanese writer Yasunari Kawabata. After deciding on story possibilities, the method presented helps focus the writer's energy into completing short individual pieces about their life. The whole process is presented to the group - from generating ideas to describing the actual process of writing a "palm-of-the-hand" memoir. These workshops have been very successful in helping people to write extensively about their life experiences - whether for family members or with an aim to someday be published in a book.
