The choice is yours! \n\nMemoir Writing Workshop with Jill Morris\n6 Mondays\, Feb 3 – March 10\n1:00 – 3:00 pm\n\n$210 for members and $250 for nonmembers\nMax 8 participants  – Deadline to register Feb 2 at midnight\n\nFor more info about Jill Morris\, visit her website: yourlifeyourwords.com URL:https://www.ohanloncenter.org/event/memoir-writing-workshop-with-jill-morris/2025-03-10/ LOCATION:O’Hanlon Center for the Arts CATEGORIES:Literary Arts ORGANIZER;CN="OHCA Staff":MAILTO:office@ohanloncenter.org END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20250207T143000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20250207T163000 DTSTAMP:20260626T193542 CREATED:20241231T190546Z LAST-MODIFIED:20241231T190546Z UID:20002894-1738938600-1738945800@www.ohanloncenter.org SUMMARY:JUST WRITE Drop-In with Jill Morris DESCRIPTION:Jill Morris will host a ‘just write’ drop-in weekly. The drop-in will consist of independent silent writing with a well-earned coffee/tea break. We all know that the greatest challenge to completing a memoir is the ability to sit down and just write\, the same way we brush our teeth daily. \n‘Just Write’ drop-ins offer the crucial components to achieve completion: support and accountability\, where you can set a page limit for yourself weekly. \nSome of you may be new to writing\, others may be more experienced. What you’ll have in common is the desire to write your life story and offer one another a supportive writing community. \nJUST WRITE Drop-In with Jill Morris \nFridays Feb 7- March 14 from 2:30 – 4:30 pm\n$20 or $15 members.\nDrop in.\nYou may prepay below for one or more drop-in sessions. \n  \nFor more info about Jill Morris\, visit her website: yourlifeyourwords.com\n\n\n\n  URL:https://www.ohanloncenter.org/event/just-write-drop-in-with-jill-morris/ LOCATION:O’Hanlon Center for the Arts CATEGORIES:Literary Arts ORGANIZER;CN="OHCA Staff":MAILTO:office@ohanloncenter.org END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20241205T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20241205T150000 DTSTAMP:20260626T193542 CREATED:20241029T175103Z LAST-MODIFIED:20241120T200356Z UID:20002554-1733403600-1733410800@www.ohanloncenter.org SUMMARY:Memoir Writing - Taster Class With Jill Morris DESCRIPTION:Have you ever wanted to write your life story\, but do not know how to proceed? \nMemoir writing teacher Jill Morris will offer a taster class in memoir writing on Thursday\, December 5.
