Write to Heal is a three-week online class for writers who are interested in writing about trauma, writing fiction based on challenging events in their own lives, and/or writing memoir about difficult personal experiences.
We will be learning how to work with a different kind of writing process that specifically addresses the needs of writing about trauma, as well as how to write fictional characters who come with trauma, and how to write about the dark and difficult events of our own lives.
