Memoir in Free Verse

Writing workshop with Frances Kai-Hwa Wang

Everyone has interesting stories to tell, but not everyone knows where to begin. Whether you want to write a family history for your loved ones or publish a memoir of your life, why not start here, one word, one story at time? Short writing and reading exercises, tips and tricks to overcome barriers to writing, if you can tell your story, you can write your story! No prerequisites. Bring a notebook and a pen.

Her writing has appeared at NBC News Asian America, PRI Global Nation, New America Media, Cha Asian Literary Journal, Kartika Review, and several anthologies, journals, and art exhibitions. She teaches Asian/Pacific Islander American media and civil rights law at the University of Michigan, and she teaches creative writing at University of Hawaii Hilo and Washtenaw Community College.
