Oh B*TCH!: A Feminist Obituary Writing Workshop

A powerful workshop that reimagines how we honor lives and legacies.

Obituaries are more than summaries of a life — they are historical documents. They shape who is remembered, how they are remembered, and what kinds of lives are treated as worthy of honor.

In this intimate and reflective workshop, we will explore what it means to write a feminist obituary: one that resists patriarchal norms, challenges systemic erasure, and celebrates the full humanity of those too often reduced to roles like “wife,” “mother,” or “helper.” Together, we’ll examine how traditional obituary structures often uphold gender, class, and racial bias, and how feminist writing can offer something truer, richer, and more liberatory.

Who This Workshop Is For

This space is for writers, grief-holders, historians of the everyday, and anyone interested in telling the truth about a life — especially the lives of women, marginalized people, and community builders whose stories deserve to be held differently.

No prior writing experience is necessary. All you need is willingness, curiosity, and care.

Space is intimate and limited. Register today to reserve your spot: https://forms.gle/5vFf8iNdCugyu3eEA
