This course came at precisely the right time in my development as a poet, and it gave me everything I could have asked for. As someone who has written poetry seriously for 45 years, I was given new, fresh ways to experience the world and find language to express that experience. The workshop itself resulted in my production of several new poems that seem worth publishing, but far more important it added to and deepened my craft and my approach to writing. The instructor was incredibly thoughtful, warm, supportive, and insightful, and working with him was inspiring to me.

Fantastic! It was exactly what I was looking for as an intro to horror. Julie is an engaged, generous, and enthusiastic teacher. She loves horror and wants to share this love and knowledge. I had no idea what a broad category horror is. I think many people would be surprised.
Julie has taken the time to curate fabulous resources so I can keep on learning after the class ended. I’d take this class again!
