Our bodies are often the first aspect of us that anyone notices. They propel us through life, but sometimes they also create hindrances, pain, and fear. How can we best start to unpack all that our bodies are and share that with others? In this workshop, participants will read and write work regarding body trauma, which may range from health/medicine to sexual experiences to wellness/image. We will both analyze others' work and craft choices relating to body writing, but also lean into a generative space where we will use imaginative prompts to open up avenues for our own writing. This class is open to all genres. Join us and let your body speak the stories it has collected over the years.
