Writing from Trauma: How to Write and Publish Your Story of Abuse and Healing

As Maya Angelou said, “There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.” When we write our personal stories of abuse, we must first face our own trauma, which can be both painful and healing. But how do we write about these memories without retraumatizing ourselves? Cait will walk us through her process of writing a memoir about abuse, from early drafts to the decisions she made about changing names and how much of her story to share publicly.
