  • I have completed mentoring another small group of writers for Intermedia Arts’ Writer-to-Writer Program in Minneapolis, Minnesota for the Spring of 2008. The mentorship centered on deep work in character development in fiction and memoir, crossing borders into the mystery of your characters and discovering the unlived life of your characters.
  •  I will be starting to conduct independent workshops in the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul, Minnesota in 2009, including my Writing for Social Change: Re-Dream a Just World Workshops. If you are located in the Twin Cities area of Minnesota, and are interested in attending classes or workshops, please contact me.
  • I will be a visiting writer, teaching graduate courses in May, at Northern Michigan University.
  • Summer Workshops: June, 2009: Place and Exile; Borders and Crossings at Skidmore College for the International Women’s Writing Guild.
  • I will be teaching workshops in August at the Cape Cod Writers’ Center’s annual conference.
  • More to come.
