Online Workshops
Write Your Mother’s Story in a community where we gather to share our experience, our writing, and tell the stories that need to be told.
Writing your mother’s story is a self care exercise where, for a short time, you detach from your busy life to really look at your memories and the stories you hold in your head and heart that have formed the foundation of who you are. You will discover the joys and challenges that come from organizing memories, finding mysteries and looking at your mother in a new light.
This will prepare you for the wonder and empathy building experience of hearing other people share their stories. You will hear stories you’ve never heard before and find people who have similar experiences to your own.
Everyone benefits from discussions on how to best deal with telling the Scary Bits of a life where the truth can be told with compassion and without judgement.
There are self directed online courses and periodic live workshops.
If you have a gang of friends, colleagues, writing group members, or book club members who are interested in having a workshop together, let us know and we can set up a bespoke workshop just for you!
It might be a 2 hour workshop to present the basic ideas through writing exercises to get you started. You can share stories on your own schedules and inclination.
Or we can give you the whole sheebang! Exercises, writing, and sharing in a six hour Live online course. Limited to 10 students using Zoom.
