Apart from money and physical heirlooms, what do you want to give your loved ones so they will remember, appreciate, and learn from you for generations to come? In Writers & Books' Joe Flaherty Legacy Writing Workshop, you’ll write letters, stories, short nonfiction pieces, and poems that share the depth and breadth of the life you’ve lived, as well as the dreams and ambitions you still wish to achieve. Your writing will bring you closer to others, connect you to past and future generations, and also generate meaningful, even surprising, self-revelation. So bring a friend, a pen, and a notebook, and get ready to express what you hold most dear! No prior creative writing experience necessary.
