Writing Your Memoir Online
Have you ever thought of writing your memoir, but didn’t know how to get started? Would you like to be able to leave a narrative of your experiences for your family and friends? Would you like to tell them what it was like to live in the world when you were a child, or how important events in your life unfolded, or the meaning and wisdom you have acquired from the life you have lived so far?
This one-hour presentation will explain what a memoir is and how to get started writing one. There is an established link between writing about stressful experiences and improved health. According to the latest research, writing about personal experiences may even help patients heal from surgery faster, can reduce anxiety and lower stress hormones, and allows individuals to put events into perspective and create a sense of mental order and calm.
Elizabeth Doan is the Lead Link Coordinator for the PA Link. She is the author of six children's books under the name Lisa Doan, as well as twenty-two historical romances written under a variety of pen names. She is currently engaged in a six book series for Dragonblade Publishing and is the Vice President of the Brandywine Valley Writer's Group.
