“There is no agony like bearing the untold story inside you.” ~Maya Angelou
Where ever you are in your life writing journey, this course provides an inspiring retreat. It introduces many of the tools of Transformative Writing™ that help minimise the inner critic, enabling you to re-connect with your authentic voice.
Transformative Writing™ brings together the reflective, expressive, healing tradition of personal writing (journal, diary, memoir), and the artistic, creative tradition of literary writing (poetry, short story, fiction). Uniting the two produces a unique blend of intimacy and universality that maintains the integrity of each elemental aspect of its origin. Joanne Klassen

I also work with Anna Levin to run courses on nature-writing and life-writing. Our last workshop in Scotland was very successful and we hope to do many more.
