Sin Vergüenzas Write is a five-week virtual voice workshop centering queer and trans writers of color, led with love by Gabby Rivera. Voice is a tool of liberation, rooted in memory, resistance, and creation. So we gotta honor our voices and rebuke all the isms that try to silence us. And the best way to do that is together, in writing community.

Each week we’ll dive into a new aspect of voice: from letting ourselves speak to listening to the ancestors and writing our own manifestos. We will journal, daydream, and write until our spirits spill out onto the page, all while learning the tools and practices to hit our writing goals and finally tell the life stories we’ve been carrying.

By the end of the 5 weeks, you’ll have a manifesto filled with your visions of liberation, and a damn good start to that memoir or essay you’ve been putting off. And that voice of yours will be stronger, more present and ready to write for real, for real. Plus, the ancestors will be there every step of the way.

So get ready, Sin Verguenzas, cuz it’s time to write.

This space centers QTBIPOC writers and welcomes all who come with respect, humility, and a willingness to learn from the margins.
