The PEIWG is thrilled to be offering a full-day, in-person seminar entitled The Magic of Memoir, hosted by award winning journalist and writer Marjorie Simmins.
This is an exclusive opportunity, limited to 10 participants to allow for a fully interactive experience. Open to both emerging and experienced writers, this seminar will include writing prompts, word and story games, readings, and discussions designed to get participants started on writing their own story.
Marjorie Simmons, author of the popular memoir Coastal Lives, is an award-winning writer and journalist who teaches memoir writing across Canada. Her many books are available on Amazon, through the Nimbus Publishing website, or in independent bookstores throughout the country.
Participants will have the opportunity, prior to the workshop, to submit up to 10 pages of a work in progress for Marjorie to evaluate and offer feedback on. Marjorie will also be bringing some of her large personal memoir library with her for participants to view. Following the workshop, Marjorie will also be signing copies of her book, Memoir: Conversations and Craft, as well as offering her other three titles for sale.
