Young LGBTQ+ Writers (14-18)

November 2022 Workshops

Young LGBTQ+ Writers (14-18) November 2022 Workshops

Hello everyone, My name is Dominique Berton. I am a Neuro-Divergent Writer and mum of two Neurodivergent teenagers, of which the youngest is trans. I started these workshops about 10 years ago when I was facilitating small groups. In daily life, I am an Independent SEN Advocate, active member/outreach facilitator for Salisbury Pride and a NaNoWriMo young writer’s coach. I’m a firm believer in sharing our stories as a form of personal therapy, as a creative outlet or as a tool to connect with other people. I am very excited to start these workshops up again for the first time since the start of COVID with a new group of young writers and assist them in finishing the first draft of a novel, short stories, Flash Fiction or poetry.
