I teach a writing class on Tuesdays from 1 to 3 p.m. at Parnell Center in Whittier, CA. We try to keep the group small enough so we can learn as well as write and critique one another's works. If several more join us, we will set up a time for that class.
The aim of the class is to teach each one to continue on with a writing class wherever anyone in the group moves. Virginia has the persistent philosophy: "Each person has at least one book in him."
