The Women’s Journal Writing Group 4-Week Session – Begins December 4th

Do you need a peaceful place to write out your jumbled thoughts or your unspoken dreams?  Do you want to write a family history or more poems?

The 4-week Women’s Journal Writing Group, beginning December 4th in Key West, is a place where women can safely let thoughts tumble out of their bellies, leaving their critics, their monkey minds, behind.

The group meets for one 90- minute session each week and is led by Key West writer, Susan Wadia-Ells.  The upcoming group will meet in Old Town, Thursday afternoons (3:30 -5PM) Dec 4, 11 & 18 and again on Jan 8.

Wadia-Ells, a journalist, author, and change agent, has led journal-writing groups around the U.S. in university and adult education settings.  She holds a PhD in women’s autobiographical writing from The Union Institute & University, and has studied journal writing practices with Natalie Goldberg (Writing Down the Bones) and with Lamont Poetry Prize-winning author, Minnie Bruce Pratt.  She is the author of Busting Breast Cancer: 7 Simple Steps to Stop Breast Cancer before it Starts (forthcoming) and The Adoption Reader: Birth Mothers, Adoptive Mothers and Adopted Daughters Tell Their Stories, Seal Press, Seattle.

Cost of the 4-week program is $ 125 or $ 35/session. Each group is limited to 10 women; meets in Old Town, with some parking available. For more info, contact Wadia-Ells at [email protected] or at 978 578 1546.
