Learn to build a smart, sustainable strategy centered on your personal goals—one that boosts your confidence, improves your acceptance rate, and strengthens your literary resume.
Carolyn McConnell, formerly Senior Editor, YES! Magazine:
When Alle spoke to my nonfiction writing class at the University of Washington, she was at once inspiring, funny, and concrete.
She arrived highly prepared and provided a map of publications, what type of material they publish, and how a writer approaches them most effectively. She had designed her presentation to draw forth student participation and used specific examples drawn from students’ experiences and needs. Her presentation was extremely valuable.”
