Write Like a Deer
Write Like a Deer is a collection of essays, poetry and hybrid texts that were written by the Gachet Writer's Group and Suparna Choudhury at the Recovery Cafe in response to Choudhury’s writing prompt about sensory writing and lingering in what we don't yet know. Participants wrote and rewrote texts that stayed in perception before entering into meaning, letting uncertainty enter both language and form.
