The Writing Project is a research memoir, writing guide and commentary on domestic abuse as found in, and nurtured by, our culture and the institutions we all rely on to protect us.
Stacey Anwin has always been enchanted by words. From an early age, she drew on the power of the written word whenever, where ever, she needed. Until her connection with this power was lost.
The Writing Project recounts Stacey's strategic attempts to recover her lost personal writing practice through writing experiments. In doing so, she regains her voice to speak about, and of, domestic abuse.
Stacey shares the strategies, tools and methods she draws on to overcome her complete creative writing block, with samples of the pieces produced as she reconnects with her writing self. She demonstrates the possibilities offered by a personal writing practice, where writing is a way of thinking, creating, resolving, exploring, reinventing, healing and much more.
