B Boutique warmly invites you to a free, inspiring event designed to help you take the first step (or next step) on your memoir-writing journey. Join us for an interactive workshop with Dr. Joyce Starr, a respected author, publisher, and book coach who has guided countless writers to bring their stories to life.

What You’ll Discover

• Action vs. Description: Keep readers turning the page by striking the perfect balance between vivid details and dynamic scenes.

• “I Was Born” vs….: Captivate your audience from the very first line with an opening that sets the tone for your story.

• Writing for Family or the Public?: Understand your intended audience and tailor your memoir to resonate with them.

• What Is Your Legacy?: Uncover the unique story only you can tell, and make decisions about the legacy you want to leave.

Dr. Starr will also shed light on the world of publishing, covering self-publishing and traditional options. You’ll walk away with the knowledge you need to make informed choices about how to share your memoir with the world.

• Pinpoint Your Beginning: Zero in on the most compelling starting point for your memoir.

• Bring Your Story to Life: Learn techniques for weaving authenticity and emotion into your writing.

• Navigate Publishing: Gain clear insights into publishing paths—so you can choose the one that feels right for you.

Whether you’re hoping to pass your history down through the generations or publish a memoir for a broad readership, you’ll leave feeling inspired, informed, and ready to put pen to paper.
