Grateful for this chance to go deep - thinking about what it meant to be seen into by the iconic Fanny Howe, what we writers can mean to each other, and how doing right isn’t the same as being good.
"In the final workshop of my graduate program, I was called out in class by Fanny Howe.... It’s taken 20 years, but I think I’m ready to learn what she was teaching me." Read @LauraRCronk's essay "Courage & Candor" in the magazine: teachersandwritersmagazine.o…
