. . . encouraging women to write their hearts out . . .
In the beginning, there were stories, and women who were afraid to speak, or thought they had nothing to say, or worried that their secrets might make them look fat. Not so today. Giving rise, and respect, to those essential utterances is what we are about here.
- WOMEN'S WRITING CIRCLE: The Amherst Writers and Artists (AWA) workshop method, used in my Women’s Writing Circle, fosters creativity, not critique, and focuses on process, not product. No one tells you how you “should” write. Instead, your own words are heard and valued just as they are. Writing prompts and exercises are presented to evoke responses, and all who want to share are invited to do so. Material offered within the circle is kept confidential and treated as fiction regardless of its factual components. For more information, visit amherstwriters.com.
