"Up Next," The Voices and Faces Project's very first writing workshop for alums of our Stories We Tell testimonial writing program, is an immersive, two-day online workshop. Building on the model of The Stories We Tell, our advanced writing program will take accepted writer-activists even further, through advanced, real-time writing prompts, moderated discussions on craft, exploitation of new mediums for story sharing, and trauma-informed, moderated sessions in which our writers will give - and receive - thoughtful, critical feedback to the work in the room. We encourage all alums of our Stories We Tell workshop to apply; if you have questions about the program please email janet@voicesandfaces.org
