Coffee & Craft Chat with Kelly Douglas

Join us Thursday, September 23rd for a Coffee and Craft Chat with writer Kelly Douglas.

Writing A Compelling Personal Narrative

We often write personal narrative to process our own experiences, but how can we craft personal narrative that compels others to change their lives? Writing personal narrative that inspires change may seem difficult, but we’ll break down several strategies to allow your message stand out in your personal narrative and help your audience not only relate to your experiences, but also discover that they can use your words to change their lives.
