Haunted Texts

A Writing Workshop for Discovering the Hidden

(in English)​

About the program:

 

In this immersive writing program, we explore the materials that haunt us—untold stories, lingering images, unresolved emotions—through literary texts, photos, film/TV scenes, and experimental writing prompts. This workshop is about discovery, not rules, providing a non-judgmental space where the materials that surface from within can take on new, unexpected forms.

You WON’T learn conventional writing techniques or receive critical feedback.
You WILL be offered tools to unlock stuck areas, and develop a unique language for expressing what feels intangible, elusive, or just out of reach.

Who is this program for?

  • Writers and artists of all levels and genres seeking fresh approaches to their work

  • Therapists and professionals interested in using writing as a lens to explore unconscious processes

  • Anyone drawn to the idea of writing as an act of excavation and transformation

What do participants take away from the program?

 

  • At least four new original texts, forming the basis for continued exploration

  • A set of creative tools to approach writing differently—breaking through barriers, accessing the subconscious, and reimagining self-expression

Dare to uncover what lingers beneath the surface - transform your ghosts into powerful creative expression.

 

What do people say about this program?

"Amital is simply an amazing, transformative teacher.  She has the ability to stand there ready to help, in the way that YOU need help, while supporting, nurturing, and engaging with you. She very perceptively gives you feedback with a rare sensitivity that allows you to truly listen and develop. Looking forward to the next workshop!"

"I have no hesitation in recommending Amital’s workshop to all writers who want to explore topics that challenge our sense of decency and sometimes fill us with disgust. Such subjects offer a potentially rich wellspring of ideas with which to experiment. Amital uses an eclectic mix of artistic material to challenge the senses and stimulate creativity; avant-garde art, film and literature that both repels and entices. No subject is off limits. The workshop has developed my confidence to experiment with material of which prior to taking the course, I had no knowledge. I consider that my writing has benefitted significantly as a result.Amital is an inspirational teacher. It is a testament to the power of the class that the writing of all the participants  flourished as the workshop progressed. I would take this workshop again in a heartbeat. The whole experience was brilliant.."
