This workshop is for anyone interested in writing about their genealogical research and in telling their family's history.

This informal monthly meeting is for those who are researching family history and want to turn their findings into lively and accurate stories about their family. Participants will practice creative-writing techniques, experiment with different formats, and give each other feedback. We'll be meeting each month, but feel free to join in at any point in the series! 

For disability accommodations, call 479.856.7250 or email questions@faylib.org 2-3 weekdays before a program. Plan your visit by viewing our building map and details on accessibility services.
