'Writing helps me release pain that I block. It gives me a freedom. When I walk out of writing class I feel a relief and enjoy sharing and developing my writing with other women.'-Lelania H.'Writing has given me hope. I am sorrowful when I walk in and light on my feet when I leave. It is like self-therapy. It’s a nice experience to bond with other women. I never believed I could write but I have learned that if I am passionate and speak from my heart that I can. We encourage each other and give each other hope.'-Tricia C.'I was feeling gloom and doom. Writing gives me a release. I never saw myself as a writer before I took the class. Now I believe that what I write and say is valid.'-Shelley H.A Woman’s Write is a collection of poetry and prose capturing the experience of women learning to understand themselves and rebuild their lives as they overcome their addictions.

They all share a common affliction.A unique woman became unveiled as each one was encouraged to put thoughts on paper and share her story. They came to trust their internal voice and found a writer within, exploring feelings of loss, fear, anger, hope, forgiveness and gratitude.An opportunity emerged to share this hope and inspiration with others; readers are invited into the pages of this collection to experience the journey.All proceeds from the sale of this book are dedicated to the continuance of the writing program.
