Hello, my name is Jennifer Kakutani and I avoided writing about my son’s birth for years because much of it was traumatic. Since then I have learned techniques that aid in writing about sensitive topics. Join other women in a safe space to share and express your authentic voice in your own words. I will offer tools, strategies, and inspiration to start the process of writing your birth story. Especially if you think you don't write well or need help expressing overwhelming feelings, these workshops are designed for you. Choose from an online eCourse or an in person gathering. My hope is that you create a descriptive birthing scene that is honest, private, real, and yours.

I am a mother of two that writes for ParentMap and is inspired by memoir style writing. I blog at Mermaid City and can often be found knitting in the sun, photographing the details of my life and riding my big bicycle with both of my kids aboard. Feel free to read my birth story here.
