STUDENTS SAY...
“I
have had many and varied writing teachers in my 54 years. Abe Louise Young
is that rare teacher who combines exceptional editorial skills with a
gentle grace and creative contagion. After one of her classes my writing
energies are super-charged for months.”
–Ginny
“I loved the poems, the readings, the commentary. Each one opened
up new worlds for me. As a beginner, I felt shy but never pressured, always
included.”
–Sally
“Your way of responding through close listening to a body of work
is a model for a teacher to learn from. The energy, openness, and variety
of ways to begin writing here helped me to imagine my “big project”
from many different viewpoints.”
–Kris
