What people say about the workshops:
"Anna has an enthusiasm for the craft of writing that is contagious. I found it impossible not to leave her class excited for whatever writing task we had been set, knowing that she had explained some technique or form with enough detail that the task would stretch my ability and make me a better writer."
"Her compassion for writers green and experienced, and her passion for the subject, make her a thoughtful and considerate teacher who nurtures the best out of her students. Anyone fortunate enough to be taught by Anna is in the very best of hands!"
"With her help, I have not only improved my writing technically, but have developed a whole routine for allowing creative inspiration I had previously been missing."
