Jobe’s Long-Awaited (Deepest Apologies for the Delay) Second Memoir Workshop Post

Before the fall semester started, before the house hunting, before the summer vacation, there was a dedicated band of folks awaiting with bated breath the posting of the memoir info from our last workshop class. There’s an adage about trying harder and failing better, so I will take that, in this case, to be synonymous with that other adage, about better being late than never. Apologies and deepest love.
