Writing provides us with a unique window into other people’s lives.

Natalie Goldberg says that “we write memoir to free ourselves.” But that freedom will only come if you dig down deep into the layers beneath the surface.

Our year of Sister Writes outreach workshops continues with four upcoming events for women in the community.

Nothing beats the exhiliration of being able to put down on paper the words that describe the world as we see it.
