50 YEAR PERSPECTIVE OF LEARNING...
by Dean Wesley Smith
Who are my mentors and what did I learn from them?
This class will not only be a class of learning about publishing and writing, but also a fond look at some of the greats in fiction writing that I was lucky enough to get to know and learn from over fifty years.
To name just a few who helped me along the way...
Jack Williamson, Damon Knight, Kate Wilhelm, Harlan Ellison, Algis Budrys, Fredrick Pohl Julius Swartz, Ray Bradbury, and others...
Starts Tuesday, February 6th. Nine weeks of me sharing what I learned from these greats and others. No assignments, just learning.
