Everyone has more than one important story to tell. Learn how the Guided Autobiography (GAB) method helps you overcome writing blocks and stay motivated through the process of writing your life story. Guided Autobiography has been researched and developed by Dr. James Birren (USC) over the past 40 years as a method for helping people document their life stories. Guided by certified instructor, Lisa Smith-Youngs, participants are led through themes and priming questions that evoke memories of events once known but mentally "filed away" and seemingly forgotten. Bring pen and paper and prepare to write a few short exploratory paragraphs based on themes shared by the instructor during this introductory session. Space is limited.
