Marcia Byalick via ZOOM

Through a combination of discussions during our online sessions, “in-class” writing exercises and weekly assignments, you will be encouraged to uncover the wonderful stories hidden within your life experience. Assignments are designed to trigger memories, providing a record of people, places, events and emotions that might otherwise be lost. Studies show that writing slows you down, clarifies emotions, dispels demons…and heals. The process can take you from self-expression to self-discovery. Join author, editor, and 16-time Long Island Press Club award winning columnist, Marcia Byalick, in exploring the times of your life.

PLEASE NOTE: This class must be limited to only a small number of students so that Professor Byalick has plenty of time to individually “workshop” with everyone; therefore, you may be closed out if you sign up after the cap has been reached.

[A Zoom link will be sent to you prior to each session, typically on the day before your class and the morning of your class.  If you have any questions or need help getting online, feel free to call us at 516-480-5733 and we’ll get right back to you with assistance.]
