I See You; Your Story Matters with Julie Ryan

The Underground Writing Podcast

Julie Ryan and UW Director Matt attended graduate school together in Vancouver, B.C. Earlier this year, Julie reached out to Matt from her English classroom in Dunedin, New Zealand in response to The Underground Writing Podcast episode about our 2018 week-long intensive at juvenile detention. She has since started a creative writing group at St. Hilda's Collegiate School and is with us in the studio to discuss literary education and cultural shifts.
