Workshop/event description:
Do you have a personal story you feel called to write but get stuck every time you try? StoryWork is all about you, your life, and the stories that shaped you, but this isn’t a memoir workshop. Together we’ll explore storying as a transformative practice that supports your ongoing journey of self-discovery, healing, personal growth, authentic self-expression, creative expansion and/or career development (including publication).
StoryWork empowers us to become fully expressed authors of our stories and our lives. Through storying, we uncover the roots of our deepest fears, beliefs, and desires—the fuel that ignites the stories we most urgently feel called to write. When we rewrite old narratives, we rewire our brains and step into exciting new possibilities.
In this interactive workshop, you’ll learn:
- a framework to unlock the transformative power contained in your stories
- how to write the hard stuff without triggering you or your reader
- what makes StoryWork such an effective approach to crafting powerful personal narratives
- how to craft a breakthrough personal essay by practicing Nicole’s StoryWork principles
Intended audience:
Writers of any skill level
About the presenter
Nicole Breit (she/her) is an award-winning essayist, bestselling author and founder of the R/evolution Story Lab, a writing collective for creators, authors + seekers ready to claim their voices, expand their creative power, and evolve together through storying.
She is the co-author of Bloom: Letters on Girlhood, a memoir described by readers as “hilarious, intimate, heartbreaking, authentic, evocative and tender.” Bloom was included in CBC’s Fall 2025 round up of must-read nonfiction books and in BC Living’s 25 BC Books to read in the bathtub.
Nicole has been widely published in literary journals and anthologies including Swelling with Pride: Queer Conception and Adoption Stories, Awfully Hilarious: Pillow Talk, and Getting to the Truth: The Craft and Practice of Creative Nonfiction. Her mixed time-lapse essay about the death of her first love was selected as a Notable by Leslie Jamison, editor of Best American Essays 2017.
Over the past decade she has helped thousands of writers sidestep blocks, improve their craft, get published, and win awards. Nicole is a sought-after speaker on how storying allows us to shape the future by healing the past and how breaking the rules of traditional memoir can produce powerful (and publishable!) stories. She is at work on a multimedia memoir about a digital romance that explores the intersections of queerness, polyamory, neurodivergence, kink, and attachment theory.
