In celebration of Family History Month, The Beaches Museum will host a Boardwalk Talk on “How to Save Your History and Write Your Life Story” presented by Vic Digenti on Thursday, October 24 at 6:30 p.m.
Everyone has a story to tell. Too often, these stories and personal histories are lost unless they’ve written a biography or memoir. But it’s not easy, and new writers may wonder how and where to start, what to include, and what to leave out. Award-winning writer Vic DiGenti works as a ghostwriter, biographer, and publisher. He’s written 12 biographies and family histories for clients and will share practical information on how to leave a lasting legacy with examples from his books.
Vic DiGenti is the award-winning author of six novels, a collection of short stories, and 13 works of nonfiction. His novels include the Windrusher trilogy of adventure-fantasies, and the Quint Mitchell Mystery series published under the pen name Parker Francis. Working as a ghostwriter and biographer, he’s penned biographies for many clients. Vic’s also helped other individuals edit and publish their books through his imprint Windrusher Hall Press.
As a working author and publisher, Vic has taught writing classes at the University of North Florida and workshops at writers’ groups and conferences throughout Florida. He’s the FWA Regional Director for NE Florida and serves on the Board of the Beaches Museum based in Jacksonville Beach. Vic lives and works in Ponte Vedra Beach with his wife and four frisky cats.
