Awwww, that's so kind of you! There actually isn't a great deal of instruction. The teacher gave us some guidelines, and a book to help us get to thinking, and turned us loose. Each week we read aloud to the class something we wrote, and it's fascinating to learn what interesting lives some folks have lived. Hearing others' stories has really encouraged me to keep writing about my life. I think we all just needed the structure of the class and the encouragement of the teacher and each other to get us started.
