Description

By using examples from his own memoir, “Love & Vodka”, R.J. Fox will lead participants through the process of turning real life experiences—both profound and ordinary—into the art of creative non-fiction. R.J. will show you how to use story structure, dialogue and character development to mold your own life story into a compelling memoir.

This is part of the monthly Emerging Writer’s Workshops, which offer support, learning, and advice for local authors. Each month, two weeks after the workshop, there is a Meet-Up where the instructors will read samples of your work and offer advice and assistance in a casual, supportive atmosphere. Do you have a completed manuscript? Find out more about the library's imprint, Fifth Avenue Press.
