April 2020 Conversation about memoir writing with Ellen Santasiero and Beth Alvarado, Deschutes County Library
"Ellen's class was a powerful learning experience. It was fun, creative, and non-threatening." --Laurie Bisby, Bend, Oregon
“Ellen is passionate about writing and this passion seeps into the classes she teaches. Her memoir writing class provided me with an encouraging group environment that gave me the support and accountability I needed to dive back into my writing practice. The writing exercises and prompts we used in class helped me expand upon and add depth to my writing. I definitely recommend Ellen’s classes to anyone who has a story to tell and wants to dive deeper into the transformative practice of writing.” —Amanda Brown, Bend, Oregon
