What I'm Teaching

As Daria famously asked in 2000, is it fall yet? Not until September 22 IMO, but I get the whole 'back to school' fall feel as someone who spent a full three-quarters of her life either attending or teaching. And after the equinox, I will indeed be teaching again—another online class with the lovelyBlue Stoop! Full info and link to register here! We'll meet on Zoom for nine weeks on Monday evenings beginning September 28, read excerpts from hybrid memoirs that blend investigation into the self with investigation into an outside topic, experiment with prompts, and then write and workshop a final piece that uses research, reporting, and/or criticism to open the door to the self. Here's a handy lil graphic with the course description and more info: Local (read: Greater Philadelphia area) and low-income students canapply for general scholarships here. Applications are due two weeks before the preferred registration deadline for the course—in this case, 9/10. I hope to see some of you in Zoom squares this fall! Thanks for reading American Orphan!
