  • "Time refining my Spoken Word piece and learning was amazing. I feel I just splurge stuff at present."

  • "Thank you lovely souls for this wonderful opportunity! We should definitely stay in touch or even do this again!"

  • “I was feeling a bit nervous on the trip to London; notebook open on my lap, running though my Spoken Word piece under my breath, butterflies in my stomach. Who wouldn’t be? It’s creative, it’s personal, we were inviting (constructive) criticism, and other women would also be sharing theirs – so even though it wasn’t competitive there would be inevitable comparison; and I didn’t expect to come out of it well.

    It turned out most of us were feeling like that about participating in the workshop. So how did we all end up feeling comfortable enough to read and perform our pieces, and why did I enjoy it so much that I’d do it all again?”
