• Anya Achtenberg: “The Disobedient Writer”- A Writer Who Dares

  “If my house were burning down, I would grab artwork, my book, and the notebooks I wrote

  in Anya’s classes. If you’re looking for an average writing teacher or editor, go elsewhere.

  Anya resides in the upper stratosphere of creativity and, if you let her,

  will lift your writing to heights you never dreamed possible.

  I won the 2006 New Mexico Discovery Award, first prize in non-fiction,

  for a story I began in Anya’s class. I divide my writing into two phases:

  pre-Anya and post-Anya. There is no comparison.”–Amy Fisher

  I am a writer an editor a social justice advocate, but I don’t have the answers.  But we all have stories.  And Writers Who Dare! are sharing theirs whether through the written word, spoken word, music, or film.  Will anyone listen?–Sherry Quan Lee, editor, How Dare We!
