I took CWRT 100 with Leesa Dean and it was one of the best and most influential courses I have taken. Leesa has an incredible knowledge of the subject matter and her passion is infectious. One of my favourite aspects - and where she went beyond just being a great instructor - was that she showed us what a writing community could look like and invited us in. I've never felt such empowerment to be an artist.
