What her students are saying…

“She pushed us hard and left us begging for more!”

“Sam is perfect. Period. She made us understand the process of writing, styles, voice and specificity.”

“Sam Dunn is an extraordinary instructor. She is generous with both her time and knowledge. I learned in nine months what would have otherwise taken years.”

“Generous. Fair. Knowledgeable. I feel privileged to have had Sam Dunn as an instructor. She devoted time to us and our material with passion, humor and compassion.”

“Sam’s ability to put together the right mix of students, shepherd us through the writing process, provide feedback that led to and highlighted breakthroughs, introduce guest presenters who provided the perfect message just when needed, give lectures that gave tremendous insight and show us the possibility of our work, was phenomenal. One-on-one sessions were tremendous.”

“Absolutely dedicated! Ms. Dunn is a dynamic and energetic instructor. Nothing was ever dull. Well experienced and comfortably conversant in technique, craft, and the industry itself. Passionate, and it was contagious. Ms. Dunn is a recognized authority in the memoir genre and she did a first-rate job with this group. I truly hated to see this class end, and I heard that sentiment expressed by the others as well. It is worth mentioning that we were a VERY diverse group, and she did a masterful job using that as a means to make the class an even more enriching experience for each of us.”

“Sam is a teaching Goddess! Her command of the class was remarkable, considering the amount of ego involved with writers. Her dedication to memoir as a literary genre is commendable and it encouraged us all to be better writers. Her casual approach to teaching was balanced with her fierce expertise of her field. Her background in journalism coupled with the experiences of a published author in memoir gives her a great advantage as a teacher.”
