I am excited and privileged to be included in the faculty of Story Circle Network for the first time! SCN has been a pioneer online and for women for almost 15 years. Based in Austin, Texas, it now has an international outreach.

Story Circle Network

In brief, the Story Circle Network offers the only life-writing program designed exclusively for women. Since 1997, this nonprofit organization has provided learning/writing opportunities in memoir, reminiscence, journaling, poetry, family stories, kitchen table stories, writing-as-healing, writing for personal growth and spiritual development, poetry, blogging, and other areas.

I’ll be teaching a class that meets the goals of Wisdom Has a Voice: Daughters Remember Mothers.

Class Description: Keepsake Memoir about Mother is a three-week course to recall and write a key memory about mother (or mother figure) that is both a compelling story and a powerful message, one that reflects her continuing legacy.
