“Joining the workshops was the push I needed to start writing my own story - something I have wanted to do for a long time, without actually taking that first step. The group immediately felt like a safe and supportive space, where we could share our writing and our thoughts openly and without judgement, and leave feeling encouraged and inspired. LaTonya provided expert and empathetic guidance throughout and I was amazed at how much rich inspiration flowed from the prompts each week. I even found myself writing poetry for the first time since childhood, something I never could have imagined even a month ago.” ~ Rachel
“Make up a story... For our sake and yours forget your name in the street; tell us what the world has been to you in the dark places and in the light. Don’t tell us what to believe, what to fear. Show us belief’s wide skirt and the stitch that unravels fear’s caul.”
Toni Morrison (The Nobel Lecture In Literature, 1993.)
