Meet Liz Breen, a 2024 COURAGE to WRITE Grantee working on her memoir, Ungroomed.
Ungroomed explores the erotic charge often present in pedagogy and how, for many young women, this charge can lead to coercive relationships with older men.
“I hope to begin a conversation about immoral relationships that are not illegal, the long-term effects these relationships have, and what consequences (if any) should exist.”
Liz Breen is a writer living outside of Boston. Her work often explores uncomfortable ambivalences and the gray areas we pretend are black and white. She can be found online at lizbreen.com.
An exciting update from Liz: “This grant has given me the financial resources and the confidence I need to finish this manuscript. No longer do I sit down to write and wonder, ‘Who cares?’ I’m excited to query agents in 2025.”
