About

Do you have stories or mementos from your family’s past that keep nudging you? Come to this writing workshop that focuses on taking family facts and lore to create a historical fiction novel that is refreshingly new with nods to your own story.

Your instructor, author Melora Fern, will take you through the steps of the factual framework, character development, and adding splashes of color through fiction to get your family stories onto the page. You'll learn the foundations needed to get started writing historical fiction based on family stories and, after the workshop, walk away with a plan of action to get your own novel underway.
