Description

“No matter what level writer you are, Joyce Maynard can make you better. She knows how to distill a story to its essence and help you shape it into a compelling experience for the reader.” For twenty-five years, New York Times best-selling author Joyce Maynard has been leading workshops in the art and craft of memoir all over the U.S. and beyond. In light of the challenging times, Joyce has recorded, from her home by Lake Atitlan, a series of intimate conversations that will help you locate and tell YOUR story, identify your themes, and address the relationships between memoir and history.
