I’m still pinching myself…to have found you as a teacher is simply a miracle. This is the first time in a while that I can see how to take my writing up another notch.

This is the best writing class, the best group of writers and the best teacher I have ever worked with.Thank you, all of you, for helping me along this path and kicking me in the behind to keep me writing!

The essay you helped me with, “Of Birds and Bees and Spiders, Too” won 1st place in the Arapahoe Community College Literary Contest in the nonfiction category. (That was the essay about deciding whether or not to help a bumblebee out of a black widow spider’s web.) I incorporated your comments and apparently it worked! Thank you again for your spot-on editor’s eye!
