About the Instructor:
Joan Koster
Joan Koster lives with her historian husband and a coon cat named Cleo in an 1860s farmhouse stacked to the ceiling with books. In a life full of adventures, she has scaled mountains, chased sheep, explored islands, illustrated books, and written novels of romance and intrigue.
All of that makes curling up on a Nova Scotia beach to draft eye-opening historical novels about forgotten women a true joy. A multi-published, award-winning author of fiction and nonfiction in the fields of art, education, anthropology, history, and romance, she is the author, 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 anyone who writes to write faster and better. She blogs about forgotten women at: Joan Koster Author, romance at: Zara West Romance, writing craft at: Zara’s Journal, and daily life during the Civil War at: American Civil War Voices.
