DESCRIPTION:Is 2023 the year to write your family story? Join author and e
 ducator Susan Beckham Zurenda for a hands-on writing workshop on creating 
 family stories..\nhttps://gwinnettpl.libnet.info/event/7542926
X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>We tell stories to share with our families
  and others. These stories connect the past to our present and to the futu
 re. Our stories and what we learn from them honor and respect our ancestor
 s and us. They can awaken us and future generations to our potential.&nbsp
 \;They can be transformative. For our family stories to be effective\, how
 ever\, they must not only tell a tale but express the important values\, b
 lunders\, wishes\, hopes\, disappointments\, and triumphs common to all hu
 manity. And to convey the truth of humanity\, our characters must express 
 real emotion.</p>\n<p>Susan Beckham Zurenda\, author of <em>Bells for Eli<
 /em>\, will present this workshop and cover the basics of a story and how 
 to achieve success in creating human emotion. It will also examine how wri
 ters achieve success in creating human emotion in contrast to why writers 
 sometimes fail in this essential endeavor. Susan Zurenda taught literature
 \, composition\, and creative writing for over 30 years at the high school
  and college levels. She has won numerous regional awards for short fictio
 n.&nbsp\; &nbsp\; &nbsp\; &nbsp\; &nbsp\; &nbsp\; &nbsp\; &nbsp\;</p>\n<p
