SWRT 172 | Characters in Memoir
Why did Molly choose to write a memoir? When and how did her writing journey evolve from oral storytelling to MFA, to memoir? How do you turn your family into characters?

SWRT 165 | Writing Memoir with Mag Dimond part 2
How does Mag view the Hero’s Journey in relation to our lives? Has she always been observant? Why does she explore the themes of love and death? And must they be viewed together in order to be understood? We wrap up talking about the spirituality of creativity.
SWRT 148 | Dark Endings part 1
What makes an ending dark? And what is the difference between a dark and a negative ending? How do you craft it so that your readers find it satisfying? We explore how some genres rely more heavily on dark endings, and what the difference is between a dark twist and a truly dark ending.
I'm Alida
I help people express their gifts to the world.
I do not believe in formulas. I believe that the stories we are compelled to tell the world make demands on us, and it is our privilege to meet those demands in order to reach the most people in the most authentic and compelling way possible.
