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."

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."

You will never know what a gift the course has been and what it has done for me, as well as the ripple effect my writing will have in the future. The gentle guidance and patience since then has given me the joy of believing in myself as well as the sheer delight of remembering and writing. A door opened for me that has led me to meeting wonderful people who also stimulate and affirm me. "Thank you" are such inadequate words, but I have no other, except to say that you have enriched my life immeasurably.
