Come join the Bluefield Chess Club at the Bluefield Branch Library. This club is for all ages and all skill levels

Join us at the Bluefield Library on Tuesday, August 6 at 6pm to take party in a Memoir Writing Workshop presented by Crystal Kieloch, Instructor of English at Bluefield College. Get tips on how to start writing your life’s story today.

Maya Angelou has said, “There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.” Our beautiful, messy, complicated stories matters, so tell them! We each have personal stories with universal meanings -learn how to start, and how to develop what you want to say even if you don’t know what it is yet. In this workshop, participants will receive the tools to help develop their own personal stories. Learn story structure, and writing techniques that will move you toward a solid memoir. No previous writing experience required.

Bluefield College Professor and poet Rob Merritt will lead a basic poetry workshop for beginners.
