Leicester Library presents:
STORY AS LEGACY
With META COMMERCE
Saturday, July 19
2-5 pm
Did you know that the secret power of your life is living in your story? This writing workshop will name and explore some of the basic gifts of story. We will shine light on the love, lessons, and value for our lives and those of our loved ones, all contained in memory, waiting to be tapped.
Join Meta Commerse, author of the memoir Womaning, for this in-depth conversation deeply rooted in Appalachia.
This class is FREE, but space is limited, and registration is required. Participants should bring a pen and notebook or paper.
