Always wanted to write your life stories, but wondered how to begin?

This is the place! Live Then Write is a six-week online program for writers and writer wannabes. It’s a fun place to get ideas about relationships, events and things in your life you’d like to write about, and the inspiration to do so.

Who am I to write my memoirs?

You don’t need to be a celebrity to write your stories! Every life has meaningful and important moments that should be explored. Whether you're in the midst of life at full-speed-ahead and you've got some cool memories to share, or you're recently retired and finally have some time to focus on your stories -- they're all important to record. Save memories, not stuff! 

Wondering if you’re qualified?

Have no fear -- you're the only one who is qualified to write your life stories! This is a no-pressure course that celebrates progress, not perfectionism. The underlying principle is that it’s more important to get the story written, than to get caught up in perfectionism and never tell the tale. You can do this.

Reflective Writing is Rewarding!

Perhaps you’d like to write for:

• Posterity – maybe a story, or a complete book of stories about your life for your family and friends.
• Greater understanding – one of the unforeseen benefits of writing life stories is the additional insight into your life that you gain though the writing process.
• Just plain fun – the habit of writing personal life stories is rewarding and fulfilling!

Whatever your reason, join here to get started. Live Then Write helps you discover how to capture memories and learn the simple mechanics of writing your stories. Fun exercises and tons of encouragement included!

What are you waiting for?

If you've always thought  about writing, now is the time. Hop on the path and join the fun! Our conversations will include how to find topics to write about, how to drill down to discover the “ah ha” of the story, what makes a story meaningful and so much more. Together we’ll have fun and produce plentiful pages.
