In this six-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 discover their material and to welcome the reader.

This class will be conducted via Zoom for six Tuesdays from 5:30pm - 7:30 pm Pacific Time.

Students who have taken three or more terms of a six-week class are eligible for Level 2 or an Intermediate class.

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.
