ONE MORE UPCOMING EVENT

An upcoming event at Seattle Public Library was inadvertently left off today’s eNews.  Because it may be of interest to some of our members or non-member subscribers, we felt it appropriate to send a follow-up announcement, just for this event.

Writing Your Memoir or Family History: a Workshop

Monday, July 18, 2016, 10:30 a.m. – 12:30 p.m.
The Seattle Public Library, Central Library, Level 4 – Room 1 – Washington Mutual Foundation Meeting Room

Join us for a FREE inspiring and entertaining two hour discussion, demonstration, writing, and sharing of memoir and family history, presented by Charley Kempthorne. Registration is required.  Kempthorne is editor of LifeStory Magazine, and author of For All Time: A Complete Guide to Writing your Family History, and Narrative Journaling: 28 Days to Writing for the Rest of Your Life.
