How They Did It: High-Stakes Memoir
Sunday Apr. 28 · 3 - 5pm
Page Street San Francisco · 297 Page St San Francisco, CA 94102
co-presented by LitCamp
In the latest “How They Did It” conversation co-presented by Litquake and LitCamp, we’ll hear from four intrepid authors of recent memoirs, all of whom took the heroic step of committing their fascinating stories to the page. Eddie Ahn (Advocate), Sylvia Brownrigg (The Whole Staggering Mystery), Margaret Juhae Lee (Starry Field), and Carvell Wallace (Another Word for Love) bravely unfurl stories of family, memory, ambition, healing, and love. Our moderator is Rachel Howard, author of the memoir The Lost Night. What did they risk on the page? What, if anything, do they regret? And how can they stir other would-be memoirists to take up the mantel of bravery and write their stories, no matter the stakes? $25 |
