Critics Review
For those immersed in creative writing studies and who employ that knowledge in their teaching, [this book] is a disciplinary overview of what you’re probably already familiar with but with the addition of heartfelt anecdotes that provide guidance to any teacher and display Vanderslice’s vulnerability and care for the students she mentors. Accompanying these narratives are useful techniques, approaches, and other elements to consider as teachers of creative writing. * Journal of Creative Writing Studies *
