Off Campus Writers' Workshop Presents: Jane Hertenstein
 - “Writing Your Memoir, Scene by Scene”

We all have fantasized at one time or another about what famous
celebrity will play us in the movie of our life. With this seminar, Jane
Hertzenstein will help you isolate significant life moments and translate them
into scenes. Some issues she will explore are: working with composite
characters, streamlining events, creating creative non-fiction and finding the
arc in your story.  Jane Hertzenstein's current
obsession is “flash”. She is the author of over 40 published stories, a
combination of fiction, creative non-fiction and blurred genre both micro and
macro. In addition, she has published a YA novel, Beyond Paradise, and a
non-fiction project, Orphan Girl: The Memoir of a Chicago Bag Lady, which
garnered national reviews. She can be found at: memoirouswrite.blogspot.com. Her
latest book is Freeze Frame: How to Write Flash Memoir. Send manuscripts to
Jane by March 17 via: mssocww@gmail.com.
