The Ontario Genealogical Society’s free webinar this month is Writing a Family History: Turning Research into Shareable Stories, presented by Lynn Palermo, on Thursday, October 4, at 7:00 p.m. Eastern time.
Every life is a story…if you only knew how to tell it. In this webinar, Ms. Palermo shows how to pull from your research to craft an engaging and captivating story your family will want to read. For the overwhelmed family historian, she shares tools on how to get organised and helps you identify a starting point for your first story.
What Attendees Can Expect to Learn:
· Tools to organize before your write
· Creating an efficient workflow
· How to identify the story you want to write
· Finding the key ingredients of a story in your research
· How to structure your family history to read like a novel
· How to make writing a part of your daily life
Register here to watch the live webinar. A recording will be available for OGS members to watch afterward.
Publishing family history is great! One of the easiest ways to do it is to make Wikipedia articles. They’re so easy to share. I recently found a cut and paste from one of my articles on a distant cousin’s Ancestry.com tree.
