Writing Through Loss: A 4 Week Workshop
50% of the proceeds of this course will be donated to The Clearity Foundation, a nonprofit that supports ovarian cancer patients and their loved ones.
When: Mondays in October from 7-9PM EST (October 7, 14, 21, and 28)
Where: On Zoom! Join us from anywhere.
Who: We’ll cap the class at 8 people to foster a close-knit environment.
In this four-session generative seminar for writers with all levels of experience, you will be guided through readings from writers like Kathryn Shulz, Lily Dancyger, Cheryl Strayed, and Jill Christman, along with prompts and practices to explore the questions, uncertainties, joys, and pains of grief.
Each class will include a reading, a discussion of the reading, an in class prompt, and a take home prompt. Prompts will explore topics including the nonlinear nature of grief and how we can reflect this on the page, mundanity in grief and how loss can cast new light on every day moments, and words as means to make sense of the nonsensical. Participants are encouraged to view all prompts as suggestions and to follow their intuition on where their words and hearts most need to go.
This is a 4 session seminar. We meet on Zoom, Mondays, 7:00-9:00 EST, starting October 7. The class will be capped at 8 people. The cost of the course is $150 and 50% of the proceeds will be donated to the Clearity Foundation.
