Event: Teachers Flourishing Through Writing

[ten grrl]

Dear Colleagues,

I’m excited to share that I’ll be co-facilitating, alongside Beth Lehman and Carla Hanson, a new series of Amherst Writers & Artists (AWA) workshops designed specifically for educators: Teachers Flourishing Through Writing.

These workshops create a supportive, generative space for teachers at all levels to write, reflect, and connect. Using the AWA method, which emphasizes new writing and strengths-based feedback, we’ll support our teaching through our own creative writing. No prior experience with AWA is necessary—just a willingness to write and engage in community. AWA provides guidelines for what one can expect from their writing workshops.

You can find more details, including registration information and session dates, here: https://amherstwriters.org/2025/02/08/teachers-talking-through-writing/

Current sessions are scheduled on the following dates and times:

Saturday, September 6, 2025, 1:00 – 3:00 p.m. EST

Monday, September 8, 2025 4:00 – 6:00 p.m. EST

Saturday, September 27, 2025 1:00 – 3:00 p.m. EST

Tuesday, September 30, 2025 6:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. EST

 

AWA members may attend up to eight workshops as part of their membership. Membership is not required; individual sessions are $20.00 each for nonmembers or for members who have used their free-write credits.

 

Please let me know if you have any questions; it would be lovely to see you in a workshop.

 

All the best,

Caroline Maun
