Using Real-Life Events in Fiction and Memoir: A Panel Discussion

In both fiction and memoir the saying “Write what you know” holds strong allure…but is it really that simple?

In this hour-long talk, Ian M. Rogers, Gina Troisi, Anthony D’Aries, and Elaina Battista-Parsons discuss transposing real-life events on to the page to create something distinct and powerful. Whether it be reluctance to reveal our own embarrassing truths or worries about how the people in our lives will react, we’ll explore the hazards that come with bridging the gap between art and real life.
