In this class, participants prepare memoirs that detail memorable life experiences. Each week, members have the opportunity to share the essays they have written in advance. Participants are asked to honor an 800-word/5-minute reading time limit in order to accommodate all class members. Each author will receive supportive feedback related to his/her submission. Discovering one’s personal writing style, voice, and effectiveness are part of the fun we enjoy in this class.

It’s easy to visit web sites and use apps in ways that jeopardize your privacy and security. By default, most web sites and social media accounts scatter your digital data in ways that you may not even realize and that will certainly come to haunt you later. “They already have all of my information; there’s nothing I can do” is not the answer!

This short class will introduce you to some internet fundamentals and will teach you how to turn off those trackers. You’ll learn how to discover what web site owners already know about you and how you can purge the data that they have collected.

This session we will read short stories from those collected in A Century of Fiction in The New Yorker 1925-2025. These stories include “classic” stories by well-known authors, lesser-known stories by prominent authors, and just plain excellent stories – all originally published in The New Yorker. Each week we will read a short story and discuss our responses to what makes the story unique: themes, techniques, characters, atmosphere, etc. All class members participate, contributing multiple views of the same story. The results are stimulating, entertaining and sometimes surprising.

Our source anthology is: A Century of Fiction in The New Yorker 1925-2025, Deborah Treisman, Ed. (New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 2025). Please arrange access to this anthology to use for the class discussions. It is available in several formats: Kindle, print, Audible.
