Journal as Personal Essay

Brought to you by Odyssey

January 26, 2022 - March 30, 2022 (10 sessions)
Wednesdays, 6:30 - 8:30 PM ET

A journal is a personal space where it’s safe to react to the world and interact with yourself. Using a multifocal approach and a panorama of writing experiences, this course is designed to help you learn specific writing skills as you develop a writing habit in a safe and supportive environment. You’ll be encouraged to record what you see, how you see it. Gain an appreciation for the possibilities of the journal through class discussions, writing prompts, and published entries by essayists, fiction writers, poets, neuroscientists, and other contemporary life watchers. Reflect. Use words. Be free. Have fun. Find yourself.
