Writing the Body with Shawna Ayoub (via Zoom)
September 9, 2023 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm
$75.00 – $100.00Writing with Shawna Ayoub has been life-changing. I have taken several classes with her, both in-person and online, all focused on memoir. Under her visionary tutelage, I have created the most profound writing of my life. Her feedback is insightful, honest, and constructive. I live with chronic illness, and Shawna always meets me exactly where I am, helping me set achievable goals. Collaborating with her has made me a better writer, but perhaps more importantly, writing with Shawna has healed me.
-Jen DeRosa
