WAGS members and the public are invited to attend any of our Life Story Writers Group Meetings. These meetings create supportive spaces for members to share writing about their personal life stories, or those of their family members and ancestors. Attendees are welcome to share their writing or to listen to others for inspiration.
Writing prompts are offered each month to help inspire your writing. The writing prompts are meant to be suggestions only. Members are welcome to share their writing on any topic related to their own lives or the lives of their family members. The current writing prompts are listed below.

There Is No Time Like the Present to Begin Writing Your Life Story
Begin with a timeline to organize the events that occurred during your lifetime.
Choose some key events in your life and weave in stories to describe these happenings.
Try asking yourself the following questions:
- Has my life turned out as I imagined it would?
- What has been my greatest accomplishment so far?
- What has been my greatest challenge, disappointment, or frustration?
- If I could have a "do-over," what would it be?
- Have I achieved the goals I set for myself? If not, why not?
- What is my philosophy of life? Has it changed over time?
- If I could give someone a piece of advice, what would it be?
