Description
About the Instructor:
In a life full of misadventures, Joan Koster has had sunstroke on the top of a Greek mountainside while doing ethnographic research with shepherds, been stranded on the banks of the Rhine with no money and one chocolate bar, and while she has never been kidnapped, she has been abandoned on an uninhabited island in the middle of the wilderness for longer than she wants to remember.
All of which makes curling up on a Nova Scotia beach penning stories full of romance and history, a true enjoyment. A multi-published, award-winning author of fiction and nonfiction who loves mentoring writers, Joan is the author of the Forgotten Women series and under the pen name, Zara West, of the romantic suspense series The Skin Quartet and Tide Harbor Suspense.
She is also the author of the top-selling Write for Success series, designed to help all authors to write faster, clearer, and more creatively. She blogs about historical women at Joan Koster Author, about romance at Zara West Romance, about writing tips at Zara West’s Journal, and about everyday life during the Civil War at American Civil War Voices.
