Write the River: A Companion Journal to A River Runs Through us

Write the River: A Companion Journal to A River Runs Through Us invites readers to write their own story - one honest scene at a time. Through guided prompts rooted in memoir-writing technique, self-forgiveness, and reflection, this journal walks women through naming the burdens they've carried, exposing the lies they've believed about themselves, and learning to extend compassion to their younger selves.

No writing experience is needed. Just willingness. Whether used alongside the memoir or as a standalone journaling tool, Write the River offers a gentle, structured path toward healing - for individual use, small groups, or women's retreats.

Michelle Thooft writes from lived experience, and this journal carries the same honest, grounded voice as her memoir - without judgment, without rushing, and with room for whatever truth needs to surface.
