I’m Joining Writing From Nature Faculty

I’ve been asked to be an adjunct faculty member at the 2009 Writing From Nature workshop put on by the Highlights Foundation in Boyds Mills, Pennsylvania. I will be teaching photography and talking about the creative process behind Wolfsnail: A Backyard Predator. It will be held April 22-26. I attended the same workshop two years ago and I learned a lot. When I sent my editor the Wolfsnail revision about two months after the workshop (essentially a total re-write with just about all new pictures), he declared it “light years ahead of where we were.”

Just like two years ago, Mark Baldwin, education director at the Roger Tory Peterson Institute, will lead the workshop. I detailed some of what I learned about nature journaling here. You can read details about this year’s workshop (including information about the wonderful site) here.

I’ve included photographs I took during the 2007 workshop in this post. You can see an album of photographs from April 2007 here.
