Storied Mothers
Each week we'll discuss a story about motherhood and freewrite on experiences of mothering, being mothered, or matrilineal loss. We’ll question cultural narratives of motherhood—like those contingent on biology, class, and citizenship—and look instead for expressions of profound and intimate nurturing. In-class freewriting will give writers a calm, safe space to reflect on their experiences and explore complexity in character relationships. Writers will leave with a story or essay draft developed from freewrites and revision exercises.
