Why:
Channie has been teaching writing in university or private settings for more than 35 years.
Channie is the real deal! If you enjoy creative writing, I urge you to take a class with her. She is a teacher/writer with street cred and, what’s more, a hibernaculum of imaginary hedgehogs. You will be surprised by the fun you will have and what you can accomplish in just one of her courses. - D. Carlyle, Winnipeg, Canada
Channie has 15 small press books published and several others under contract. She’s a four-time Pushcart Prize Nominee and a National Endowment for the Humanities scholar.
I am so gratified by Channie’s positive and encouraging responses. My online course with her was the most amazing, often grueling, and deeply instructive course I have taken since who-knows-when! I have grown immeasurably in whatever skills I have merited gaining. It has been an honor to learn from the very best! I am grateful. - Devorah Druxman, New York City.
Channie has been an editor for scholarly or literary periodicals for more than 30 years.
Channie is like a good parent. She encourages you when you do well but will also let you know when you are going astray. Best of all, she has a unique way of teaching that forces you to learn even when you are resistant.

Hannah has been selling her writing since 1975. She can empower you with skills that enable you to sell yours.
