In this four-week workshop designed for those struggling with cancer or other illnesses, we’ll work together with a series of open-ended prompts designed to allow stories to emerge from deep within our bodies and life experiences.

In this four-week workshop, we’ll work together with a series of open-ended prompts designed to allow stories to emerge from deep within our bodies and life experiences. As we write together, we’ll grow more comfortable engaging these stories and gradually find ourselves opening to what they have to tell us. Further, by witnessing the stories in a group of those similarly touched by serious illness, we’ll find them more powerful still.
