When the MasterClass team first contacted me I said, Are you kidding? I can’t teach writing! But they encouraged me to give it a try, saying I probably knew more about writing than I thought I did. And they were right. Once I started talking it all came pouring out, and I mean all. Support and encouragement go a long way. And that’s what I hope I can offer to you in this class, along with sharing what I know and what I’ve learned in my 50 years of the writing life. So here you go! Remember that every writer is a reader first. It’s how we’ve figured out how to tell our own stories, how to write our own books. I’m a big believer in determination. Maybe it’s not more important than talent, but it’s right up there. If you don’t go for it, you’ll never find out what might have been. Good Luck. Hope to see some of you at my bookshop in Key West.
