New Class: Writing About Religious Trauma
In this intimate six-week workshop, Sara Moslener will guide writers through sharing personal experiences and trauma related to religion.
One of the most common topics we see in pitches and essays these days is religious trauma. In our view, this is a good thing — not, of course, that all that trauma is happening, but that people are opening up and writing about their experiences. It’s one of those topics that so, so many people go through, but many people are understandably hesitant to share.
Sara Moslener is one of the leading thinkers and writers in this burgeoning field. She’s been teaching university courses for over fifteen years that focus on the religious roots of racism, misogyny, and authoritarianism, and she’s written two books of her own about evangelical purity culture: Virgin Nation and After Purity.
We’re very fortunate to have Sara on hand this spring to teach a brand new Narratively Academy class on Writing About Religious Trauma.
In this intimate six-week workshop class, Sara will guide writers through telling personal experiences and trauma related to religion, and you’ll start to share your own story with an instructor and peers who appreciate the unique nature of religious trauma and can help you represent it with accuracy and compassion.
