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:
Lost/Found Memoir Course
REVIEW BY:
Charlotte Mande Ilunga, Cape Town
"The writing course at LRC has helped me deal with my painful past and to see the potential in me. It has encouraged me to read, write more and to be connected with other people.My published stories are an educative tool and it promotes the willingness to share our stories. By sharing we create an awareness, we connect and heal as a nation.Everything is a story and your story is my story, and when it is written it will be preserved for the generations to come."

I feel like I’ve come home to myself after a very long and arduous journey. Such relief healing and comfort.Thank you for holding the space so beautifully."
