Join us tomorrow, October 20, 2026 at 10am for: "Pat Pihl's Guided Autobiography Class."

What is Guided Autobiography?
Guided Autobiography or GAB is a welcoming, structured way to begin writing the stories of your life. Each week, participants receive thought-provoking themes and prompts designed to help uncover memories that may not have surfaced in years.

"But I'm Not A Writer"...
You don’t need to consider yourself a writer. The goal isn’t to create a polished autobiography—it’s to capture meaningful experiences, turning points, people and lessons that have shaped who you are.

What will we do?
Participants will write short pieces between sessions and have the opportunity to share them in a small, supportive group.

Register by sending name and contact information of attendee(s) to [email protected] or [email protected].
