Who
Am I?
My
name is Jackie Pias Carlin, I am a former entertainer, artist and
returning graduate student (over 50) at Bread Loaf School of English,
a division of Middlebury College, Vermont.
I teach creative writing in the Personal and Community Enrichment
Program at Maui Community College and give workshops in autobiography
at Kaunoa Senior Center in Paia, Maui, Hawaii.
I
believe anyone can write a good story by practicing the elements and
basic structure of writing. Like Tai Chi, writing is a life long practice.
Feel
free to email me if
you have any questions. I look forward to hearing from you.
