Terri brings such precision, poetry and musicality to her descriptions of herself and her relationship to motherhood. Her insights have been both supportive and illuminating.
I have every confidence students lucky enough to study with Terri Linton will walk away enriched and inspired. Terri sees to the heart of motherhood with the same searing writer’s gaze she turns on every human experience, bringing depth of insight, precision of observation and utter compassion to our most painful and joyful moments. As a teacher, Terri will lead students towards their personal version of what she does so well — finding truth through distilled imagery, poetic allusion and musicality on the page.
Terri’s style of teaching is phenomenal. I’ve taken two classes with her so far, and have benefited from her broad base of knowledge and expertise. She shared numerous readings and prompts with the classes that were instructive and generative. Terri is able to find a balance between sharing her perspective and giving space to the students to share their thoughts and their work. And she creates a supportive space where writers of all backgrounds can express themselves and feel heard. I highly recommend her classes and can’t wait to learn from her again!
