Adult Writing Workshop: Writing as Transformation Part 1 & 2

Instructor Nicole Gnezda, Ph.D. will lead participants through a process of self-exploration, investigating topics such as entropy vs. creativity, deterioration vs. growth, repressing vs. addressing pain, and finding resilience. We will build bridges between the unconscious and the conscious, using writing to transform the painful and ugly into something meaningful and beautiful. Activities will include idea searches via “burning questions,” idea development with spoke charts, changing prose into poetry and vice-versa, and stream of consciousness writing. Focus will be on meaning and expression instead of technicalities and grammar. As we work through our narratives, we will experience support from and for each other. Part 2 will involve sharing our narratives or poems with each other. Transformation occurs during our interactions with thoughts and writing materials as we actualize our ideas. Transformation continues when we connect with others in the sharing of our stories. We will all be there to witness and support each other’s creative offerings and to reflect on our creative journeys.
