Awesome
She is an excellent creative writing lecturer who is witty, smart, and articulate. She gives excellent feedback on students' stories without sugarcoating areas where they need to improve. We had a weekly short story, plus two longer pieces of 10+ pages, short story readings, and online discussion board posts Before class, I suggest you read everyone's stories.
