Herstory Writers Network
Herstory nurtures writers of all ages, genders, and backgrounds to transform their lived experience into memoirs powerful enough to change hearts, minds, and policy.
​
Our writing circles, carried out by facilitators trained in our empathy-based pedagogy, champion a culture of healing, community connection, and belonging.
Celebrating 30 years of shaping stories in community
From one workshop in Southampton, NY in 1996 to a global network, Herstory now spans languages, communities, and institutions, from K-12 schools and universities to healthcare centers and county jails. Writing in spaces that are constantly shifting according to community needs, we remain committed to making our workshops accessible to all, regardless of the level of education and the nature of our lived experience.
