Post #18 – Women’s Memoirs, Writing and Healing – Kendra Bonnett and Matilda Butler
Finding Healing through Writing
Today’s article on writing and healing is by Brancy Laperle. She shares how writing, specifically journaling, helps her separate the pain in her life from herself.
As with all of our writing and healing blogs we hope this helps you look as ways that you can use writing to find healing in your life.
Have you found that writing is healing? If so, we invite you to send us your story of how writing has been a form of healing for you. Some, like Brandy, find healing through journaling. Perhaps you found healing while writing your memoir. Maybe you have found other forms of writing that created a sense of peace or insight that you’d like to share with us.
Just email between 200-600 words (or longer if you contact us first) to: Matilda (at) WomensMemoirs (dot) com. We are interested in publishing your thoughts on writing and healing on this website — either with your name or anonymously, your choice.
