Join this fun and innovative introductory course to memoir writing.  Open to everyone, from beginners to advanced writers, this course will encourage students to find what they've forgotten and turn those memories into fabulous works of prose and poetry. Through innovative writing techniques, such as exquisite corpse and other in-class writing games, students will experiment with language as a way to access their sub/unconscious memories. Students are encouraged to bring in old photo albums, thoughtful letters from family and friends, and other keepsakes to help jumpstart the process.

Neil de la Flor’s literary work has appeared most recently in Court Green, No Tell Motel, Hayden’s Ferry Review, Sentence, and Barrow Street. He is also the co-author of Facial Geometry, (NeO Pepper Press) a chapbook of collaborative triads written with Maureen Seaton and Kristine Snodgrass. He is lives in Miami,  Florida.
