Introducing Anna Elise Medinger, who will be assisting with the workshops on Mondays and Fridays. Anna adores middle-schoolers as she vividly remembers the horror of being that age. She also remembers how cathartic "writing it out could be." Anna has been an adjunct instructor of
Composition and Rhetoric for J. Sargeant Reynolds Community College and Virginia Commonwealth University.
