ONLINE Genealogy Workshop
Spinning Gold: Shaping your Family Research into Compelling Stories
with Christine Halvorson
Hosted Sunday, September 20

In this workshop, local author Chris Halvorson inspires you to dust off your boxes of family memorabilia and start mining them for golden stories - true or not.

Last Fall, Halvorson published a young adult novel, Inmate, very loosely based on her family. She will focus on that book's genesis, which was her curiosity about the technology behind such websites as ancestry.com. Halvorson will share her research process, the mistakes she's made, and a bit about the story-writing process. "The work that goes into genealogical research so often never see the light of day beyond, maybe, family members," she says. "Every family has secrets and stories to tell. It's a shame to let them molder unseen."
