Write to Celebrate, Heal, and Free the Wild Woman WithinIn her years as a writing coach, Judy Reeves has found twin urges in women: they yearn to reclaim a true nature that resides below the surface of daily life and to give it voice. The longing to express this wild, authentic nature is what informs Reeves’s most popular workshop and now this workshop in a book. Here, you will explore the stages that make up your life, from wild child, daughter/sister/mother, and loves and lovers, to creative work, friendships, and how the wise woman encounters death. Both intuitive and practical, Wild Women, Wild Voices responds to women’s deep need for expression with specific and inspiring activities, exercises, and writing prompts. With true empathy, Reeves invites, instructs, and celebrates the authentic expression — even the howl — of the wild in every woman.

Review “Master teacher Judy Reeves’s fortifying, fascinating, liberating exercises reach down to the place where the deep howl resides.”— Janet Fitch, author of White Oleander“Judy Reeves unites the discipline of writing with the unruly and uncontainable impulses that make us want to write in the first place.”— Laurel Corona, author of The Four Seasons and The Mapmaker’s Daughter“Wild women, we’ve been waiting for this....It is a book to buy, tuck under your arm, and head out toward life with, expressing your true self along the way.”— Tina Welling, author of Writing Wild“Judy Reeves has become a virtual guru for writers everywhere. In Wild Women, Wild Voices, she offers her patented inspiration, exploration, and encouragement. Her passion for writing is evident on every page. We are so lucky to have such an enthusiastic and assured guide on the journey that is the writing life.”— T. Greenwood, author of Bodies of Water, Grace, and Two Rivers“A thoughtful and inspiring read full of tools to help women celebrate, heal, and free the wild woman within....This is a book, not about editing and grammar or placing any restrictions on word-flow, but instead inviting women writers to tell their stories and their truths from a place that is deep and true. It’s not about making nice....Highly recommended, especially for women who want to express themselves through writing but don’t know how to begin.”— Sage Woman

In each chapter Author Judy Reeves takes readers into an inner journey that will allow us to recall what it felt like when we we By Marilyn Dalrymple I am thoroughly enjoying reading Wild Women, Wild Voices and know I will return to it many times to recharge my energy, creativity and as a way to free my inner self. This book refers to Women Who Run with the Wolves, one of my favorites and is written in the same tone and spirit.In each chapter Author Judy Reeves takes readers into an inner journey that will allow us to recall what it felt like when we were very young to young and wild, and how to regain those exhilarating feelings. We are given assignments, guided in how to make the most of these tasks, and tells us what we are to gain by completing the work.For instance, Chapter 8, Friends and Companions: Finding Your Tribe, tells us to use the "I remember" prompt and to remember our friends (a specific friend) and memories of that person. Reeves takes us through, "Childhood Friends: Wild Companions and Adolescent Cohorts." Then to "Exploration: Friends from Back When," "Exploration: It Was a Time When . . . ," and "Exploration: Best Friends."Assignments are given throughout the book. Chapter eight offers the challenge of "Notes for Nurturing Wild Voice." Instructions are given for each assignment.On the back cover is a brief biography of author Judy Reeves. She is a writer, teacher and writing practice provocateur. She's written four books on writing. Wild Women, Wild Voices is encouraging, motivating and freeing. I'm going to be making use of it and enjoying it for years to come, I'm sure.

Write from your Authentic Wildness By Story Circle Book Reviews I've very much appreciated Judy Reeves' books on writing in the past and was definitely keen to read her new one. Wild Women, Wild Voices has resonated with me because I've been part of women's writing circles for twenty years and that sense of writing in community is remembered fondly.Reeves has based her book on Wild Women writing workshops she has been leading for more than two decades. She was inspired by Women Who Run with the Wolves by Clarissa Pinkola Estes as many of us were—and continue to be. Other writers quoted and referenced are Mark Nepo, Susan Wooldridge, Jamaica Kincaid, Diane Ackerman, Mary Oliver, Anne Sexton, Eudora Welty, Thich Nhat Hanh, Rumi, Dorothy Parker, Edna St. Vincent Millay, Toni Morrison, Virginia Woolf, Sue Monk Kidd, and Maxine Kumin.Excerpts from the writing of women who have attended Wild Women Writing Workshops are also included and they help to create that sense of a community of writing women throughout the book. You realize you're not alone as you embark on your writing journey.Thirteen chapters invite explorations into the varied aspects of women's lives: looking at ourselves as girls, our initiation into womanhood and remembering and acknowledging ourselves "as artists and creators and as adventurous travelers of inner and outer landscapes."As for the term "exploration," Reeves said in an interview that the explorations "refer to following a path laid out by the voice and the language to a destination that isn't fore-planned... So we don't write to learn a certain method or technique; we write to discover our story."Writing about the body; family; the geography of our lives; loves and lovers; and friends and companions are among the chapter themes.In the "Artist/Creator" chapter, Reeves suggests "a map of creative expressions." Using different colored pens, a large piece of paper can be filled with statements, words, or images. Those words can then become a list of pleasurable ways one was creative. Painting a room, creating a collage, dancing the two-step could be among such creative pursuits.Reeves recalls a time when she was in kindergarten and a high school troupe performed for the school. She felt transformed by the theatrical performance of "Aladdin and His Magic Lantern" and recalls others times when she feels like a participant in the making of art.The fact that Reeves shares her own story in each chapter adds a comforting support from a respected writing mentor.I appreciated the list of intentions Reeves created one year instead of making New Year's resolutions. One of them: "to be open to wild imaginings and receptive to the charm of the ordinary."For "Life Journeys," Reeves suggest a "scatterpage" on which memories scattered on a page become a source for writing rather than a chronological list. Then you can go back to one memory of a pilgrimage for instance and "let your pen take you on this journey."The book continues with "illuminating the shadow," "intuitive wisdom," and a final chapter called "Death, Loss and Legacies."Each chapter is full of prompts for "further explorations" and questions about the journey thus far. She calls the writing we do "Journey Notes."The Appendix gives some guidelines for creating your own Wild Women writing group. I like Reeves' idea of creating a chapbook of writing from the group and offering readings to family and possibly, the general public. Reeves refers to the "brave and beautiful women" reading their work. And of course that bravery has been honed by facing the page too. Judy Reeves is a very encouraging guide and in sharing her own story throughout, gives us support and inspiration for telling our own.by Mary Ann Moorefor Story Circle Book Reviewsreviewing books by, for, and about women

Wild Women, Wild Voices - Writing from Your Authentic Wildness, by Judy Reeves is such a book. This book is not just for writers, however. Wild Women, Wild Voices is for anyone (including men) who have experienced life and are searching for tools through which they can process and give their life experience expression. This book provides so much more than what it promises by helping to support not only our creative expression, but the self-actualization that is accomplished when we take time to grow through what life has to offer. Well done Judy!Lauri Ann Lumbyauthor of Song of the Beloved - the Gospel According to Mary Magdalene and Authentic Freedom - Claiming a Life of Contentment and Joy
