Queer Reflections: Writing Through the Holidays

Queer Reflections: Writing Through the Holidays (Online)

Are you looking for a creative outlet during the holiday season? Join us for a special three-week "Holiday Prep" session of our queer-centered writing class. We'll meet ONLINE on the first three Wednesdays of December to celebrate your unique voice and experiences.
The holidays can be particularly challenging for LGBTQIA+ folks. Family gatherings, societal expectations, and the emphasis on tradition can sometimes feel overwhelming or exclusionary. This class offers a safe, supportive space to explore these complexities through writing, allowing you to process your emotions, share your experiences, and find solidarity with others who understand.
In this nurturing environment, we welcome writers of all levels to delve into the intersection of queer identity and everyday life, with a holiday focus. Whether you're writing about navigating family dynamics, creating new traditions, dealing with holiday stress, or celebrating joyful moments, our prompts and strengths-based feedback will help you articulate your experiences authentically.
Key Features:
- Three Wednesday evening sessions in December
- Inclusive, judgment-free environment for LGBTQIA+ writers and allies
- Prompts addressing both the challenges and joys of the holiday season
- Opportunity to share your work and receive compassionate, constructive feedback
- A supportive community to help you through potentially difficult times
Remember: You can write about queer experiences, holiday challenges, everyday occurrences, or anything in between. This is your space to express yourself freely and honestly.
What Our Participants Say:
"This class is more than just writing; it's a weekly sanctuary. I prioritize it above all else, feeling valued, heard, and inspired." - T. Chandler
"Always amazing. Always vital." - T. D.

Join us this December to find solace, solidarity, and celebration in our vibrant writing community. Let's transform the holiday season into a time of creative expression, personal growth, and mutual support!
