Intensive (new lessons posted every five days) Jan. 30 – Feb. 29, 2012. | Taught by Jen Cross | $178 non-member; $161 member
We each need safe space in which to be our whole erotic selves–discover the liberatory uses of erotic writing as you try your hand at some explicit erotic writing, and, in so doing, get more comfortable exploring and talking about sexual desires, explore the varied and complex aspects of sexuality and desire, and celebrate the fullness of our erotic expression!
Magic happens here, that’s the thing. We explore the politics of desire in the most amazing ways. Jen’s workshops are good nourishment for the soul and creativity, as well as really empowering and FUN!!! Go toward the fun…..

I would have never guessed that Declaring our Erotic would end with me performing my work at the National Queer Arts Festival. The great support has kept me writing and matured my writing. I’ll be back. Thanks Jen!
