In this eight-week class, we will look at published works by notable essayists to see how their use of persona narrator and other elements of craft help them both to live into their material and to welcome the reader. This class is open to students who have taken three terms of Online Essays and the Persona Narrator.

This class will be conducted via Zoom for eight Saturdays from 10:30 am - 12:30 pm Pacific Time.

Writers Studio San Francisco Director

Gail Ford

Gail, a graduate of Stanford, teaches poetry, fiction, essays, Art Speaks to Art, and CD Wright’s hybrid writing. Gail loves thinking, talking, and laughing with writers about writing, and welcomes all to “try this, try that” as a playful means to both deepen access to our material and engage the reader. Her work has appeared in the NOYO River Review, Carquinez Review, Minotaur, and Northern Contours and has been anthologized in An Eye for an Eye Makes the Whole World Blind, and A Ghost at Heart's Edge, Stories and Poems of Adoption.
