Love and Healing: Creative Writing Workshop

We welcome you to join us for a free-flowing creative writing workshop inspired by the themes of love, healing, and self-discovery explored in the poetry book “When She Loves” by Katrina Rojas. This workshop offers a safe and supportive space for participants to reflect on their own experiences, write, and release in community. Come ready to embrace vulnerability through creative expression.

"When She Loves" chronicles the emotional journey that Katrina experienced during her teenage years and young adulthood. While still in the midst of this journey, it revolves around navigating love while striving to understand oneself. Despite feeling fortunate to have loved and been loved in various ways, they've learned that, regardless of how much one gives themselves to another, love can still elude, wander, and drift away. Even when holding on desperately, love may not always prove sufficient. Katrina’s experiences have taught her that sometimes love must undergo transformation, which might entail finally letting go, asserting oneself, and prioritizing self-love. By the conclusion of the collection, readers bear witness to a path towards healing and freedom through radical vulnerability and acceptance.

Purchase on Amazon or in store at Frugal Bookstore.
