Creative and Reflective Writing Workshop for Health Practitioners
April 30 - June 4, 2026This four-session series is designed for health practitioners seeking to improve their creative and reflective writing skills. Each session will include discussion of a particular literary genre — such as memoir, fiction, and poetry — and feature group discussion of published work. Conversation around themes and questions in creative and reflective writing in the health humanities will also be a focus.
A workshop component will offer participants space to write, read, and try out new methods and approaches for prose and poetry, share feedback, and hone writing work with peers in a safe and encouraging environment.
As well as enhancing literacy skills, this series will provide an opportunity for health practitioners to explore their experiences through writing, and will enhance their understanding of the narrative potential of patient encounters. In a creative and collegial atmosphere, participants are invited to become part of a supportive community in narrative-based medicine.

From Page to Publication: A Writing Workshop for Health Professionals
Jan. 21 - Feb. 11, 2026As health professionals, many of us carry stories that yearn to be told: stories that reflect the complexity of our work, the humanity of our patients, and the evolution of our own identities.
Whether you’re crafting a personal essay, work of short fiction, or reflective narrative, this workshop is designed to help you move from a raw draft to a polished piece and take you through the essential steps towards getting it published.
Structured around peer feedback, guided writing exercises, and practical editorial insight, this workshop supports participants in refining their craft while negotiating the ethical and emotional terrain of writing from clinical experience. Built around the journey of a single piece of writing by participants, the first session focuses on writing and revision, exploring themes central to narrative-based medicine and the art of authentic storytelling. The second session shifts to editing and publishing, offering concrete strategies for submitting to journals, contests, and self-publishing with step-by-step advice on navigating the editorial process — including a Q&A with a guest editor.
Whether you’re new to creative writing or already have some experience, join us to deepen your practice, connect with a community of clinician-writers, and take the next step in your storytelling journey.
This workshop is your launchpad for developing your writing style and voice, and sharing your work with the world.
