The Northeast Poetry Center is offering a series of free workshops to be held Saturdays at 2 p.m.
Mona Toscana will present a memoir writing workshop called "Mother Memories/Father Fables" on January 22 from 10 a.m.-3 p.m., with an hour break for lunch.
Toscana describes her focus as "mother figures, father figures, possibly including archetypes and mythic beings." She asks that participants bring writing materials and a souvenir or story to "churn" writing. She suggests memoirists might work from "actual memories, family tall tales, or embellished histories."
