Acclaimed writer Kathy Gunst is teaching a workshop this summer at Hewnoaks in Lovell, Maine. Finding Voice: A Food & Memoir Writing Workshop will take place July 26th through August 1st.
This workshop is built for anyone interested in food writing, whether you’re crafting essays, collecting family recipes, developing a newsletter, or working on a memoir. Each day begins with a focused morning session offering prompts, discussion, and shared work time. Afternoons are open for writing, swimming, hiking, or simply resting. Hewnoaks provides the calm, supportive environment needed for new ideas to take shape.
Each morning session centers on a different aspect of food and memoir writing. Prompts are designed to spark ideas, help you refine your voice, and support meaningful progress in your work. Afternoons are left open for writing, reflection, and enjoying the landscape.
Gunst is the author of 16 cookbooks and is a three-time James Beard Award winner. You can learn more about her work on kathygunst.co.
