Rewrite Your Childhood Course
REVIEW BY:

“Gave me a safe space to connect with my inner child and to write into key moments that have impacted on him. The feedback encouraged me enormously to keep writing.”
COURSE:
Creative Writing
REVIEW BY:
Kaulana Williams, Cape Town
"It gave me a practical technique to get my body ready for writing by using the visualization exercises that Dawn taught us.I enjoyed the practical approach and liked the casual atmosphere which felt like a safe space with friends where we could ask and share anything, even though we were all strangers.It was comforting to know that if you’re struggling, you’re not alone."
COURSE:
Audio Course
REVIEW BY:
Kirstie Nel, Cape Town
"It served an ice breaker helping me get back into writing, while the playfulness through the prompts and tasks were a good way to engage internally and let things out through a deepened process.The online meet ups were the most enjoyable! Sharing stories was an important though scary process initially. Dawn is an open and thoughtful facilitator with excellent listening skills. It was very valuable for me to have my writing & my voice heard and affirmed in a group."
COURSE:
Audio Course
REVIEW BY:
Olive Klara Hodge, Cape Town
"Thank you for making this an audio course. Due to lockdown, I fear many of us have "Zoom Fatigue", therefore I very much appreciated being able to just listen. The audio sessions are very valuable as you are able to revisit exercises if you stumbled through them."

Audio Course
REVIEW BY:
Dugal Harris, Cape Town
"I got first-hand sense of the possibility of writing to work a kind of magic. With the right combination of imagination, compassion and good luck, it feels possible for writing to redeem troublesome aspects of the past.The group feedback sessions were great - both serious and quite playful. The opportunity to be heard by and to hear from a variety of people was very rewarding. And a much needed break from lockdown. I loved the readings of other people's work - both humbling and inspiring."
