About Permission: The New Memoirist and the Courage to Create

Who am I to tell my story? How do writers write the story they are most compelled to tell, when they have been shamed into staying silent? How do we grant ourselves permission to write it when we have been told–by family, by culture, by history–that it is not ours to tell?Without fail, almost every memoirist – new or experienced – has faced dire questions of permission and story there is something that they want to write about, that they need to write about. they can’t. They have been warned not to; they might be paralyzed with shame, threatened with shunning, chastened into silence. If they wrote what they have been warned against, they would vaporize on the spot, even if what they need to write about has defined them and their worldviews.But what if they did? What if you did?After writing three critically-acclaimed memoirs and a decade of teaching memoir workshops at every level, Elissa Altman has helped students face the elephant in every writer’s how to craft the stories that are most central to them despite the voices that have told them not to. Permission is a transparent exploration of what happened when Altman and many other great writers took that leap and wrote the story they’d always needed to share. This is a master course, not only on how to craft memoir, but how to begin and keep going when you’ve been told you can’t, and how to how to give yourself permission to transcend the fear that keeps vital stories from being written. We are the storytelling species; Permission will inspire and guide all creatives to a place of transformation, of freedom from the constraints of shame and fear in all their forms, and to the understanding and recognition of the ethics of story-making, art-making, truth-telling, and creative soul-saving.
