Writing Your Life: A Memoir Workshop
Tuesday, November 9, 2010 at 10:00 AM
Whitridge Room; free of charge; registration required; both sessions recommended

In this workshop created especially for the Library and The Writing Life, Ms. Bingham will address setting memoir in its historical context, creating art rather than rant, and the pleasures and pitfalls of turning one's life into prose.

Two Sessions:

  • Tuesday, November 9, 2010  
  • Thursday, November 11, 2010  

Sallie Bingham is the author of Passion and Prejudice: A Family Memoir, and is currently writing its sequel. Her other well-known work includes six novels, the short story collections Transgressions and Red Car, and numerous plays including A Dangerous Personality.

The Writing Life Daytime Talk Series in 2010 is generously underwritten by Jenny Lawrence.
