Motherhood and Words

Writer and mother Kate Hopper knows what it means to have important stories to tell.

Whether you are a new mom or a veteran, whether you gave birth to or adopted your child, in this single-session class you’ll learn how to take birth and motherhood stories and turn them into art.

StoryStudio is thrilled to host guest instructor Kate Hopper, author of Use Your Words: A Writing Guide for Mothers, who will be at StoryStudio to share insights and strategies on how to find your stories, how to begin putting them down on paper, and how to manage the intense personal nature of these stories. Class time will be divided between lecture, class discussion, writing, and optional sharing of writing.
