DESCRIPTION:Declaring Our Erotic: Reclaiming Our Sexuality\nSeven Thursday evenings, 
 6:30-9:00pm.\nFall 2010 dates: Oct 7- Nov 25\nOpen to all LGBTQQI survivors 
 of sexual trauma! Folks of all genders welcome \n\nWe each need safe space 
 in which to be our whole erotic selves -- to delve into the fantasies and 
 imaginings that we've learned or been told don't "go with" our public 
 sexual identities. In this workshop we'll celebrate and struggle with the 
 fullness of our erotic expression.\n\nCome together with other survivors to 
 create a space in which we struggle with and celebrate our full, complex 
 sexualities. Each week, we write in response to exercises designed to tap 
 into different aspects of our sexual selves:  memory, fantasy, experience, 
 relationship with the body, and more! You will get more comfortable 
 exploring and talking about sexual desires, receive strong feedback about 
 your new writing, explore the full breadth of our sexualities and desires 
 in a fun and confidential environment - and, of course, try your hand at 
 some explicit erotic writing. Previous participants have found the group to 
 be transformative, feeling that the work they've done has opened up and 
 changed not only their relationship with their erotic selves, but with many 
 other aspects of their lives as well.\n\nNo previous writing experience 
 necessary -- Open to folks of all writing abilities!  Limited to 9 writers. 
 Spaces are limited and pre-registration is required. Cost for the 8 week 
 class is on a sliding scale, $225-250 (please contact me about payment 
 plans or other money questions). Workshops held in an accessible and 
 BART-friendly location in downtown San Francisco.\n\nTo register, write to 
 Jen at the address above or visit writingourselveswhole.org. Thank 
 you!\n\nAbout your facilitator: Jen Cross is a freelance writer and
