Writing Ourselves Whole Writing Workshop

Post date: 26 September 2010
Date: 6 October - 1 December 2010

Writing Ourselves Whole offers Amherst Writers and Artists method writing workshops focusing on creating spaces in which we can engage our difficult stories on the page. We exist in the service of transforming trauma and/or struggles around sexuality into art, and creating spaces in which individuals may come to recognize the artist/writer within.
