Bios:

Claire Bien is a writer, mental health advocate and educator, and peer support. She is also the author of a memoir, Hearing Voices, Living Fully: Living with the Voices in My Head. She received wonderful feedback and support in the memoir-writing process from fellow members of her Prosetry (prose and poetry) writing group and is excited to co-facilitate a writing group at the Wilson Library.

Jessica Robayo is an aspiring writer and public librarian. She has over 5 years of experience in facilitating library programming, including a peer-facilitated Writer's Group she hosted during her time at the Boston Public Library. She is thrilled to connect with local writers and to expand her craft while offering a safe space for those to do so as well.
