Hi, Jane.  I just wanted to pass along that Junse Kim is one of the most organized teachers I have ever experienced.  Also, both his teaching style and personal gestalt nothing shy of pure grace.  It was a great Intro to Fiction class!!  Just thought I’d let you know.

Best,
Linda Forester

Jane:

I just wanted to tell you that the “Intro to Fiction“ course I took with Junse Kim was one of the best writing classes I’ve ever taken.

Just wanted to let you know – thanks!
