Teaching

Learning to write is a lifelong process. There’s always some element of the craft you can–and should!–be striving to improve. My quest to get better, as a writer, led to my reviewing books and participating in workshops… and, eventually, teaching courses through the UCLA Extension Writers’ Program and University of Toronto.

I am currently on a break from teaching and am no longer accepting new students either for classes or one on one mentorships. However, I do sometimes blog about the craft of writing, generating mini-lectures and other resources for new authors. Links to writing essays can be found here.

Nobody writes immaculate first drafts. Learning to read well and deeply, and to give honest, open-hearted critiques to your peers is the path to learning to make your own writing better.
