826 Seattle hosts Adderall Diaries' author, Stephen Elliott Dec. 2 (7-9 pm)

Stephen Elliott Memoir Writing Workshop Dec 2, 7-9 p.m.

826 Seattle is pleased to announce that longtime McSweeney’s author Stephen Elliott will be here at 826 on Wednesday December 2 from 7-9 p.m. to talk about the generation of memoir, using the author’s recent book, The Adderall Diaries, as a jumping off point for discussing the process of figuring out your story and editing it into something someone would want to read.

• You’ll get ideas on writing memoir
  
• Understand some of the problems the memoir writer may encounter
  
• How to deal with family members and friends who may not want to be written about
  
• Writing tips for accessing memories and experiences

The Adderall Diaries is Stephen Elliott’s first memoir but his seventh book, all of them written from personal experience. Even better: admission is the price of the book, and includes a copy! That’s $25 for your own copy of The Adderall Diaries and a chance to learn from Mr. Elliott himself at this one-of-a-kind workshop. Purchase your ticket today at Brown Paper Tickets.
