Last Call for Our Queer Memoir Writing Workshop!
This intimate workshop-based class is designed for writers who want to feel emboldened, confident and strong in their first-person storytelling. Just 3 seats left!
Depictions of queer and trans stories in mainstream media rarely capture the unique range of our personal journeys — especially at a time when our voices are silenced and our community is the target of renewed hate. Some of the most powerful statements an LGBTQIA+ person can make are, I belong. I will not be silent. You can’t erase me. I have a right to exist. Queer memoir makes these statements a reality by putting our stories on the page for others to read and hear.
That’s why I’m so excited to be teaching another session of Queer Writers Workshop: Memoir Is an Act of Resistance. Class starts this Sunday and there are just 3 seats left!
This class will center our community’s joy and power through storytelling. We’ll use memoir to claim our space, call for justice, and create a lasting record of our memories. We’ll create new work, share long and short projects, and support one another on the path of self-exploration. This five-week class builds confidence through generating new writing and sharing ideas in a safe, respectful space. But who is this confident, fabulous instructor, you may ask?
This workshop is great for first-time writers, seasoned essayists hoping to develop a longer project, folks jumping back into writing after a break, and devoted journal writers who feel ready to read their words to others. It’s an intimate class with room for just 10 students, and only a few seats left. Click through to learn more and to join us on Sundays for the next 5 weeks!
We also have several other workshop classes starting in the next few weeks—check them all out here.
