Personal Narrative through Poetry and Memoir


Do you want to write about your experiences as a healthcare professional or home caregiver? Participate in crafting and exchanging short personal essays and poems about healing, triumph, comfort, and loss. Led by two poets, a medical humanities scholar and a hospital trauma chaplain, this intensive, two-day workshop combines feedback on your writing with discussion of imaginative literature in the field.


Writers at all levels are welcome. Registration will be limited to twelve people.
