The Healing Power of Writing
I am a writer and really enjoy working with others who wish to explore their lives through the written word.
At fifty I was immersed in an MA in Creative Writing (Sussex University), in my thirties I learnt how to be rigorous in presenting information to a listening audience whilst a researcher (live radio four news programmes), and producer (Woman’s Hour) at the BBC. My forties was focussed around family life.
Along with my stash of diaries at the top of my wardrobe is a flimsy and fragile booklet held together with yellowing crinkled sellotape, The Golden Book of Stories and Poems, dated 1958. I was born ten years before so you can work out my age.
I’ve always written with a need to express myself, take pleasure in words and find meaning. Drawing on a long life of experiences, I have written four books on creative therapeutic writing. Through these autoethnographic explorations, I show how literary strategies are empowering for self-exploration and reflection.
