LEGACY WRITING: DOCUMENTING LIFE'S JOURNEY TOGETHER
Legacy Writing: Guided Autobiography (GAB) is a transformative writing experience that helps individuals explore and document their life stories. Facilitated by the instructor using guided themes and priming questions, participants delve into memories, reflect on their experiences, and create a meaningful narrative. This course fosters self-awareness, connection, and personal growth. With guidance from the instructor, participants will develop their own stories and develop their unique writing experience.
- Guided Autobiography is not a course on writing, it is theme based personal reflection 2 pages at a time
- You only share what you are comfortable sharing
- There will be no criticism of style or correction of grammar, and spelling does not matter
- Although many believe they have nothing interesting to share, nothing is more interesting to others than the details of people's lives
