Your visit to my class yesterday was supportive, informative, and inspirational. As a second year teacher of Creative Writing in a school that has never had such a program before, I found your videos, instructional materials, and especially your visit has helped improve my course

I cannot express to you how impactful this was for them- it's like the spark has been rekindled.

We had no idea that your Writing degree intermingled creative writing courses and technical writing courses. What a great idea, considering that the worlds of creative nonfiction and technical writing put writers in demand.

Thanks for coming in and visiting with us. I'd love to have more partnerships like this with the University. There is tremendous potential in a closer relationship.
--Bill August, Principal, Big Spring
They loved how “a college professor could make something make sense for high school freshmen students!” I received several parent e-mails Monday night saying how their kids could not stop talking to them about the class as well. Many were asking when you were coming back in.
---Tricia Donly, Mechanicsburg High School
I thought his presentation to our class was amazing.

Thank you so much for coming in. They are really looking at their senses now instead of trying to stay in the box of the dreaded 5 paragraph essay.
