This seminar caused us to dig deeper into our past and bring back memories that we didn't even know we had.
Thank you for offering this program.
- Thought activity to generate plans for a memoir or family story was helpful and could tell people were responding
- Liked choice of Heaney poem to illustrate meaningful writing about family
- Glad teacher invited people to read what they had written and thought he gave encouraging responses
- Would have liked teacher to invite us to introduce ourselves by name at least at the beginning
- Would have liked teacher to invite us to consider writing poetry as well as prose
