The One Hour Memoir: The Essential Structure for Writing Your Powerful Story

If there’s a personal story that just won’t leave you alone …

… that’s a great reason to write memoir.

The world is only getting more unstable, and the truth is getting fuzzier every day.

A memoir is your chance to record your truth.

To be grounded in your reality — as you wrote it.

Why now?

The longer you wait, the dimmer your experiences get.

Your recollection loses its precision — and your story gets harder to write.

The sooner you begin, the more alive the story feels on the page.

For you and for your reader (important!).

That’s why I’m hosting The One Hour Memoir, a live, guided workshop where you’ll build a simple, powerful structure for your story.

Having a structure saves you from getting lost.

Knowing your next step means you can actually write your story.

Instead of starting strong then abandoning everything when you hit a roadblock.

With an essential structure in place, you’ll know what your next step is – at every turn.

Join me on May 8th for one focused hour of real progress, live!

SAVE YOUR SEAT

The One Hour Memoir Is For You If…

Everyone says “you should write a book!"

You’re ready to shape your experience into a story that readers will be wow-ed by.

You've got lots of material -- but you get stuck when you try to sort out what goes where.

You’re an expert/teacher/coach who wants to help people without turning your book into a generic how-to.

You want to write personal narratives (for a book OR channels like Substack, newsletters, or magazines), but you don’t know how to incorporate your lived experiences.

You’re ready to make this memoir real, but you don’t want to spend months writing pages that never become a draft.

Dear Aspiring Memoirist…

Here’s what I want you to know:

You don’t need a full outline. You don’t need perfect sentences.

You need a container. A simple structure that turns “I want to write my story” into a book-shaped direction you can keep moving in.

When you join me for The One Hour Memoir, you’ll get the support and structure you need to move into action.

Together we’ll identify the core dramatic center of your story, map pivotal scenes and clarify where to start. This gives you the essential momentum to start writing — and keep going.

How The One Hour Memoir Works

The One Hour Memoir combines instruction and real-time thinking and writing. We’ll move quickly and intentionally, so you make immediate progress.

Here’s what you’ll achieve by the end of the hour:

You’ll identify your peak experience — the one your memoir is organized around. What is the most intense, explosive thing that happened?

You’ll list out 5 pivotal scenes, where action takes place. What happened as a result of the peak experience and what does it mean for your story?

You’ll learn why beginning, middle, and end is the key structure to getting started -- and keeping going.
