About the methodology:
Illuminating Our Voices (IOV) workshops follow the AWA (Amherst Writers & Artists) philosophy:
- All work is treated as fiction.
- Every person is a unique storyteller with an abundance of creativity. There is no 'right way'.
- We listen to stories for what has impact, what's strong. We do not critique.
