The Turnings Project

The Turnings Project was a mindshare initiative started by Anna Jeavons in 2020. Writers with lived experience of mental illness were invited to produce a short piece of prose that documented a turning point in their life. These were often marked by major life events such as diagnoses, decisions, birthdays, births, tragedies, or realisations and epiphanies.

Below are the Turnings Project submissions.
