Structure can seem like such a mundane word, but in this webinar, we’ll find exciting new ways for you to bring your story to life on the page.

You’ve mined your memories, written your scenes, and come to some insights—yet your personal essay or memoir still doesn’t seem to fully engage your reader. Radically revising your structure might be the answer.

We’ll be thinking of structure in the sense of “containers,” the way you might choose the perfect vase for a bouquet. Containers in this context could be thought of as through-lines that both hold and propel the narratives. These container scenes create both boundaries and forward movement for material that might otherwise have a hard time finding its focus.
