Personal Growth through Creative Writing
from Breath In, Write Out Hosted by PFAU: Academic Writing
This week’s episode is about the gifts that writing can provide to your mental health. Writing can be a great emotional relief, healing old wounds, providing unique insights, and enhancing personal growth. Journaling and self-reflecting are practices that I engage in daily, and make a huge difference in the quality of my life. I find creative writing an amazing outlet to tap into childhood memories and expand my self-awareness too. Today’s guest is Linh Nguyen, a Vietnamese-Canadian writer and workshop facilitator, passionate about #OwnVoices storytelling and creating space for underrepresented artists in mainstream media. She holds an H.B.A. in English from the University of Toronto and specializes in writing creative non-fiction and children’s literature and is currently pursuing her Masters at Cambridge. Her current project is a middle-grade children’s portal fantasy manuscript, which she is revising for publication.
