This program is a 10-week journey through Nancy Slonim Aronie’s latest book, Memoir as Medicine, The Healing Power of Writing Your Messy, Imperfect, Unruly (but Gorgeously Yours) Life Story. Aronie is the founder of the Chilmark Writing Workshop on Martha’s Vineyard and has been working with writers for 45 years. Beyond a book study, this program will take writers of all levels of ability, through the challenge of writing exercises each day to manifest that unexplored story that aches to be written. Gatherings will provide the opportunity for writing and sharing work in a positive, non-judgemental atmosphere. Presented by award-winning writer and Director of the Seastar Wellness Studio, Patricia Chaffee, who has been presenting Creating a Writing Life programs for emerging writers since 2007. This in-person offering is limited to 10 writers. Register by April 16.  $195 pp for the 10-week program. Presented Tuesdays 4/19-6/21.
