(7 customer reviews)

1,500.00

A one-of-a-kind writing workshop for those who want to write about thoughts, feelings and experiences with their pets and the birds and animals we interact with or observe.

Participants will work with fiction as well as non-fiction. The writing exercises will cover all writing moods and styles, from the funny and playful to the serious and sentimental.

This is not a workshop about animal therapy or about animal communication. It is purely a writing workshop with the focus on putting in words and communicating to other people, the joys and challenges of having an animal in your life.

    Paws and pen

    Even though I could only attend 1 session of the 2 day class. I really enjoyed it. I have not written in a long time and in those few hours encouraged me to think about what I want to write and how I want my writing to go especially for this theme.

    A wonderful weekend visiting my dearest pet

    I thoroughly enjoyed being a part of this weekend workshop on writing about animals in my life. I wanted to use the creative inspiration to process my grief at the passing of my dearest Cookie ( he died during the lockdown when I couldnt be with him). I went through the gamut of sadness, tears, heartache, joy, appreciation and gratitude for his life. I could finally write an obituary and an epitaph for him. He isn’t buried where I can visit everyday thanks to the lockdown but Gouri helped me process my grief and meet him in my imagination to tell him how much I loved and appreciated him. Thank you so much for this opportunity to feel deeply and heal my hurt.
