I'm thrilled to be featured on Christina Keys' Keys for Caregiving for National Caregivers Month. Christina and I met a little over a year ago at a caregiver retreat in Carrabassett Valley, Maine, and she is an incredible champion for caregivers all over the U.S. For this project, she asked several of the family caregivers she knows to put together a quick video and share a little about their story, what they currently do within the caregiver space, and a tip for supporting family caregivers in your life. You can see the entire collection of videos here, and you can learn more about Christina's work here.  I'm excited to be teaching a writing workshop for the upcoming Brain Injury Alliance of Vermont Conference in December. The conference is virtual, so you can join from anywhere! Learn more and register here.  The latest issue of my newsletter, the Red Eft, is here! It's got some scrumptious recipes (apple cider doughnuts! cheese and herb stuffed focaccia!), a feature on the writer and brain injury advocate David Grant, a new prompt, some reading recommendations, and some brain facts from Z. You can find the issue here.  Financial assistance is available, and you don't need to live in MaineGeneral's service area to register for this workshop!  All Things Become New and I are collaborating to offer a "Writing through Caregiving" workshop over Zoom on November 19, 2024. If you need any accommodations or the registration fee is a barrier, please reach out to Suzanne Morneault at All Things Become New at 207-540-5446.  I'm teaching a Writing for Better Health workshop through MaineGeneral's Peter Alfond Prevention & Healthy Living Center on October 17, 2024, 4:30-6:00 pm in Waterville, ME. We'll talk about the health benefits of a writing/journaling practice, explore some tips for incorporating writing into your life, and you'll also get to try out some writing prompts during the session. No writing experience is necessary, the cost is $15, and scholarships are available!
