I’m looking forward to teaching a writing workshop at the John Campbell Folk School at Christmastime 2011. The class is called The Gift of Writing; we gather Dec. 4-10, 2011 in beautiful, hilly North Carolina. Here’s the blurb from their catalog:
Join us as we coax forth our best seasonal memories. Whether your recollection takes the form of a short story, a chapter in a novel, an article destined for a magazine, an essay or memoir, an annual holiday letter, or even a series of holiday greeting cards, we’ll polish that cherished memory to a festive luster. O come, all ye faithful, to create written holiday keepsakes your family will enjoy for years to come. All levels welcome!

I am always receptive to conducting ad-hoc workshops via my Rubicon Writers Salon series of master classes. Typically these have been writing classes, but I welcome all suggestions. Contact me with ideas or suggestions.
A teacher affects eternity; he can never tell where his influence stops.
