$ Becoming the Second Person with Shawna Ayoub (Resource Center for Women & Ministry in the South)

June 2 @ 2:00 pm 4:00 pm

Do you have a painful and true story you find yourself reliving each time you try to tell it? What about a story that’s stuck inside you because it feels too raw to be writeable, too vulnerable to be readable? Is being able to tell that story without suffering the key to releasing yourself from the trauma of the narrative?

What if you found out there is a way to create safe distance while still telling that hard story? To minimize trauma and (re)gain control of your narrative by no longer being your story’s first person?

What if you could be your story’s second person?

In this course, writers will engage second person works and practice writing in second person. Writers wil alsol take home a packet of writing examples as well as prompts, and can contact Shawna for written feedback within two weeks of this workshop.

$75 – $100
