Writing a memoir can be fun. It is a place to collect your thought or memorialize people and events in your life for future generations, or it is simply for your own pleasure.  The primary goal is to demonstrate the basic skills of memoir writing while increasing the interaction of WISE students on ZOOM; turn on your camera, meet your neighbors, and enhance your communication skills post isolation.
