Hi Everyone,

I'd like to pass on information about a wonderful program we're going to
have at the Ferndale Library this Spring for our Great Michigan Read
program. It's a memoir writing program put together by the women who own
Your Personal Memoir, a business in town. More information about the
program is listed below. They'd love to work with you if you're interested.
They're very professional and lovely to work with. We're really looking
forward to hosting them.



*Memoir-Writing Workshop for Great Michigan Reads*

*Your Personal Memoir, LLC. *– a metro Detroit-based memoir writing company
– is offering a *“How to Write Your Memoir”* workshop to participating
Great Michigan Reads libraries or any libraries interested in inspiring
programming.

The one to two hour workshop explains the value of preserving family
stories, how to get started on a memoir, interviewing techniques and how to
self publish. Participants will practice writing and come away inspired to
record their stories to be enjoyed for generations to come.

Your Personal Memoir is owned by Gigi VanderWeele, a former Detroit Free
Press reporter, and Susan Carroll, a former human resources executive. The
two help individuals or families preserve life stories with beautiful,
heirloom-quality hardcover books. For more information visit
www.yourpersonalmemoir.com .


For information about a “How to Write Your Memoir” workshop call
248-629-0697.
