Storytelling Lab
CLASSES
Movies, Memories, Memoir
A six-week, six-person memoir class online via Zoom.
Each week focuses on one of the six key elements of story and one time in your life. You watch a film and write a piece prompted by the movie and pointed at your own experience. In class, we read and discuss what you wrote. No judgment. No criticism. No self-consciousness.
By the end, those six pieces are your groundwork: the themes you keep returning to, and the start of the memoir only you can write.

Six films. Six weeks. Six people. Your story.

Storytelling Lab
Storytelling Lab is a six-week, six-person workshop online via Zoom.
This isn't a typical writing class. There are no critiques, no red pens, no rules about what good writing looks like. What there is: a small, intimate cohort of six people, and a process unlike anything you've tried before. You already know how to write. What you don't know is how to translate your life into a story. Each week brings a new, unexpected assignment designed to tap every aspect of your creative voice - from prose to pictures - until the story that's been waiting inside you finally finds its way out.
Every story you tell is powered by the same forces that drive every great film, novel, and memoir ever written. Storytelling Lab teaches you to recognize those forces in your own life and use them. Not to sound like a writer. To sound like yourself.
Explore one-to-one storytelling coaching.
Six weeks. Six people. One voice — yours.

Write NOW!
Each weekly session is two hours and is divided into two parts. The first half is a lively, interactive class where you'll learn practical storytelling techniques that help unlock your story. The second half is dedicated to writing time, so you'll put those ideas into practice immediately. You won't leave with homework you'll never do - you'll leave having already written.
