Since 1984, Patti Miller has been helping people write in a
variety of genres: autobiography, memoir, travel and sojourn writing, narrative
non-fiction, personal essays, articles, family history, novels and short
stories. Because she believes in the value of your story in your own words, she
does not write for you, but encourages and shows you how to write for yourself.
She offers a range of possibilities in a
variety of genres to suit all learning styles:
correspondence courses, live workshops, editing, manuscript development
and two writing text books.
She offers:
Correspondence Courses: If you need help getting
started, try one of these 10 unit correspondence courses. More
