Marya’s workshop is called INVENTING THE ‘I’: Crafting A Powerful First Person Voice. If you’re taking my workshop - or are just interested in the topic - I recommend checking out Marya’s Longreads essay “ The Ways of a Wandering Spirit.” I’ll be teaching the writing workshop Wild Women on the Road, which you can register for here. Marya Hornbacher and I will both be teaching this year at the Festival of Women Writers, taking place this September 6-8. I had the humbling opportunity to interview her, and I asked her about what it was like to publish at twenty-three years old and what advice she has to other writers, how she practices self-care while writing about difficult topics, and her latest project on the women’s solitude.
