I’m not sure what I will do when this course is over. All day at my desk I think of the moment when I can rush home and login and start to write. At the beginning of the new sessions I am beyond excited.

Introduction to Therapeutic and Reflective Writing is a quietly powerful course. I knew it would introduce me to completely different ways of working with words – that’s what I signed up for and it definitely delivered. I hadn’t expected that it would make me fall in love, all over again, with the act of writing…
