Join us for a week of essential conversations with five activist writers who each offer unique approaches to using writing and other forms of creative expression to make the world better.

Your host, Jennifer Browdy, PhD, is a veteran professor of literature, writing and media arts at Bard College/Simon’s Rock and the global Bard Open Society University Network. She coined the term “purposeful memoir” to describe essential contemplative work for leaders, activists and anyone who wants to make a positive difference in the world. The publisher of Green Fire Press, she is an author coach, editor and co-host of the online writers’ community Birth Your Truest Story. Her award-winning books include: Purposeful Memoir as a Quest for a Thriving Future, The Elemental Journey of Purposeful Memoir, and the memoir What I Forgot ...And Why I Remembered. She publishes two Substack newsletters, Writing to Right the World & The Spirit of Education and leads an annual memoir retreat in Tuscany as well as Riding & Writing trips to Portugal and Iceland.

Born in Scotland at 318ppm CO2, Manda Scott was once a veterinary surgeon and is now a novelist, smallholder, contemporary shamanic trainer and host of the international chart-topping Accidental Gods podcast. Best known for the Boudica: Dreaming series, she’s been shortlisted for the Orange Prize, the Edgar and the Saltire Award, and won the McIlvanney Prize. She’s co-creator of the Thrutopia Masterclass and her new Thrutopian novel, Any Human Power, is a ‘visionary and seismic’ mytho-political thriller. Woven through with Boudica-style dreaming, it maps out routes across the ghost-lines of tomorrow, in the hope that everyone else will walk them into paths of possibility. She lives with her wife in the liminal edge place between England and Wales.
