Inkwell is a weekly workshop focused on providing a supportive space where we use the written word to help process our experiences with cancer and to think about what it means to live well. While we use writing to facilitate this process, you do not need to be “a writer” to enjoy and benefit from this workshop. All are welcome. Every session involves a prompt and a short writing period to explore whatever ideas the prompt might inspire. Topics of the prompts will vary. The writing itself can take any form you want it to (journaling, poetry, storytelling etc.) which you can choose (or not) to share with other members of the group. The ultimate goal is a supportive community with whom to share your thoughts.ell
