Many of Watt's students have gone on to become professional writers, bestselling authors, and win major literary awards.“Alan Watt is a master at bringing out the stories hidden in your subconscious. The 90-Day Memoir is the perfect companion to bring forth your story that is begging to be told.”— Jennifer L. Scott, New York Times Bestselling Author of Lessons from Madame Chic“Alan Watt’s 90-Day Memoir is a masterful guided tour to your interior world, structured perfectly. And, amazingly to me, it ends with a mostly completed rough draft in just three months.”– Bill Buzenberg, Former head of NPR News, Minnesota Public Radio and the Center for Public Integrity)“Writing a memoir requires direction and care. I wouldn’t have been able to do it without the intuitive guidance of Alan Watt’s brilliantly constructed 90-Day Memoir.” - Sophie Uliano, New York Times bestselling author of Gorgeously Green"Watt teaches you to live in your scenes and set aside the hypercritical surveillance that can plague the process."- Frank B. Wilderson III, American Book Award Winner for Incognegro: A Memoir of Exile and Apartheid"Where do professional writers and writing instructors turn when they need inspiration and guidance with their own work? This one turns to Al Watt. Al is not only a guru when it comes to structure and form, but his teachings reach deeper into the emotional and spiritual reasons for telling our stories. The 90-Day Memoir distills some of his best guidance. I turn to his words again and again."- Samantha Dunn, bestselling memoirist of Not by Accident: Reconstructing a Careless Life“Having had many powerful teachers, creative and otherwise, Alan is in a league all his own. His well-honed and well-earned mastery of the craft of writing, his awareness of the human condition, and his own very apparent evolution as a person, among many other qualities, coincide to create an experience like no other. If you have the opportunity to study with Al, don’t miss it.”– Robert Gant, actor Queer As Folk“The workshop was without a doubt the key to getting my travel memoir about living with the poor in Vietnam out of a rut. Al is brilliant and has an uncanny ability to draw out the issues and angles you didn’t know you had in you. It was also fascinating to hear the work of other writers and learn from Al’s comments to them. I finished my book and had offers from two publishing houses.” —Karin Esterhammer, author of So Happiness to Meet You, Prospect Park Books, Winner of the Nautilus Book Award’s Silver Medal"Alan Watt is a master teacher, with a brilliant intuitive understanding of story." - Allen Zadoff, author of the memoir Hungry“The 90-Day Memoir is part structure journey, part shamanic tracking of self and part healing ceremony” - Linda Kay Stevens Read more
