Venue: The Writers Workshop
Facilitator: Raquel Vogl
A Mother's Day session of our regular workshop Writing Motherhood
Motherhood is a rich subject for writing. As Sarah Ruhl writes, “Motherhood is an undiscovered country in the literary sense, one we must venture into lest our experiences [go] unrecorded.”
This workshop will provide a safe space to explore our experiences of mothering through writing in any genre. We will mine the rich and abundant material that comes from the experience of mothering or being mothered, and I hope that the act of describing our experiences heals and empowers us as writers and as mothers.
Open to anyone who is a mother (self-defined) or wants to write about mothers. Open to both novices and seasoned writers. This workshop will use different prompts from the previous workshops on motherhood. We will spend our time writing and sharing our writing.
