to the Anne LaBastille Memorial Writers Residency: “What really stands out for me about this residency was how, from the very first moments of the residency on, we were invited into an experience of ease, play and kindness. It wasn’t that the act of writing wasn’t taken seriously, it was. But the sense of acceptance and warmth I felt made me feel so welcomed and free. And I think this had a real effect on my writing. I took my time with what I wrote, really listened to it, took risks” – 🖌 Fay, 2019 Alumnus
