Reading 100s of essays sent in for workshops, working with clients, I've noticed key elements that are self-sabotaging many essays. None of them is bad writing. Every one of them can be fixed.

To my immigrants: when did you find “home” in the United States? Do you remember the moment when you felt a sense of belonging?

I’d love to hear your experience and include it on the podcast!

Wonderful comment by a student in my Hané class yesterday : “I am witnessing first hand, in your class, a renaissance of Diné literature.” This is one of the most important classes I ever taught. Ahehee @nau_mfa 🪶 😢
