Pandemics and Punchlines: How Laughter can Get Us Through

Laughter and joy are not the first things that comes to mind when we think about living and writing through a long pandemic winter. But they should be. Laughter is one of the most powerful, yet under-appreciated tools we have in this life.

Inspiration for the Journey: Beginnings, Endings and the Arc of Story
Jerry Waxler
November 20, 2020

Here at NAMW we are always championing you to write the stories that you treasure, that you need to write, that you want to share. I’ve invited Jerry Waxler back to talk about story—a subject he loves to talk about. Over the years, Jerry has taught structure and the power of story, and since this month celebrates National Lifestory Month, we wanted to inspired you and offer some tips to get your story started, if you haven’t begun yet, and infuse new energy into your writing during a time of the year when we can get distracted by everything else. This year was indeed a year of chaos and coping. We hope you can join us.
