My experience writing memoirs for now is ok. The first time I wrote one I was inspired and I knew what I was writing about since it was something that actually happened so I just needed to put the write words in the right places. The second memoir however, it was kind of difficult because I had to write about a situation where I was forced or by choice wanted to be anonymous comparing it to a situation where the author went anonymous due to her circumstances, and since I have never experienced something similar I couldn’t express fully what I wanted to write about and I had not idea if it was right. Due to this I am confident to say that my experience is ok and hopefully I get to be more open about my past and broaden my word choice while writing.

Office Hours: Tuesdays and Thursdays, 11:30 AM – 12:30 PM. I’ll be available through Zoom and will send an invitation via email that you should keep all semester. Try to join my meeting at the start of the hour, not at the end—since I may be talking to other students or have another appointment after the hour is up. If those times don’t work with your schedule, we can schedule a different time. This means you’ll have to schedule an appointment in advance. I suggest you have multiple times in mind, since your schedule may not mesh with mine!
