[My instructor] was one of the most powerful poets I've read in print or listened to at readings. This free workshop offers an incredible opportunity to learn from her and develop poetry that excels both on the page and on the stage. The first session has already inspired me to refine my work and create new, imaginative, and personal pieces.

I've said this a lot, but I can't thank [SFCWI] enough for equipping me with the skill of going deep in my writing. It's something I turn to again and again in all my writing—going deep, getting to the emotional core of a character—and it's paying off so much.
[Alexandra] is a great, great teacher. I know because I'm not the same anymore. My voice is more authentic on the page and in person. It's also easier for me to express myself openly and confidently. I'm just so happy when I get an inspiration to write. I scribble everything down and then let it fly. This is pure joy for me.
