Amanda and Cindy share why they joined Hope Edelman's Writing with Hope program. Amanda felt called to write her memoir and brought a draft to the in-person retreat. Cindy moved from Motherless Daughters retreats into the course, drawn to the healing and poetic writing process.
I'm Amanda, and I joined Writing with Hope 1. I just felt something inside of me that told me that I wanted to explore writing a memoir. And when I came to the Writing with Hope retreat in person, I came with a printed copy of my complete first draft of my book that I began in Writing with Hope 1.
My name is Cindy, and I have been a participant in the Motherless Daughters retreats, which then took me to the Writing with Hope 1 course. There was something very poetic and nourishing and healing about the writing process that I didn't think I possessed, and I wanted to see if I could nurture it and grow something out of it that I could feel proud of.
