Phyllis Rowland’s How to Write Time of Your Life Stories in Ten Easy Steps is a coil-bound workbook designed with you in mind. The easy-to-follow format of TIME OF YOUR LIFE STORIES builds confidence in inexperienced writers and encourages them to choose from (or combine) a variety of styles: diary, letter, timeline, recipes, poetry, anecdote, personal essay, and short story. Topics and tools are provided for recalling and writing about the events, relationships, and influences that shaped one’s life. Participants can complete the series of ten assignments in sixteen to twenty hours of class time, or, by choosing topics from hundreds of suggestions, they may repeat the series indefinitely, on their own, without loss of interest. The book not only “tells how” but also “shows how.” Stories by ordinary people provide concrete examples for each assignment.
