Transitions have become a central writing theme for the women recently relocated to Chittenden Regional Correctional Facility in So. Burlington.

Transitions are teachers, and yet look how much energy we spend struggling to avoid this difficult dance. Writing during a transition is the bridge that helps you get from the known to the unknown. It is the high-intensity filament that lights your way across the abyss and over to the other side. Writing is your best friend, your sounding board, sitting with you until the dawn breaks.       

–Nancy Slonin Aronie, Writing from the Heart
