See Memory Workflow

Starter direction

Create a family history comic from these notes: grandmother moved from Mississippi to Chicago in 1968, worked nights, loved gospel records, taught three grandchildren to cook. Separate verified facts from imagined dialogue, create a timeline, four-page comic outline, family-safe tone and review checklist.

For real family stories, keep facts, sources and invented dialogue clearly separated.
