Village Books and WCC Community and Continuing Education have established a writing instruction collaboration called Chuckanut Writers. Writing classes, seminars, and conferences will inspire and encourage writers at all stages of their writing journey.

Four Essential Practices for Successful Memoir Writing with Cami Ostman - September 6, $25 
"Did he really say that?" Creating Effective Dialogue in Memoir with L. Kalpakian - September 13, $25
Bringing Memoir Alive Through A Sense of Place with Nancy Canyon - September 20, $25
Journeying Through Emotions in Memoir Writing with Jennifer Wilhoit - September 27, $25

As part of the fourth annual Whatcom Memoir Writing Month, this series returns with all new workshops to help you turn your memories into memoir, giving shape and voice to the stories you have always wanted to share and the stories your readers want to hear. The goal for each writer is 1,666 words every day. At the end of September you will have 50,000 words: a book. You will have given shape and voice to the stories and adventures you have always wanted to share, the stories your readers want to hear. These workshops, each led by experienced memoir writers and teachers, can be taken as a whole, or you can select from the individual workshops to suit your needs.

Instructors: Cami Ostman, Laura Kalpakian, Nancy Canyon, and Jennifer Wilhoit. Class meets Thursdays, September 6-27 from 5:00-6:30pm, and is $89; click to register. To see the full listing of current Chuckanut Writers classes, click here.
