About the Instructor:
Joan Koster
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 with stories of forgotten women a true enjoyment. A multi-published, award-winning author of fiction and nonfiction in the fields of art, education, anthropology, history and romance, she is the author of the award-winning That Dickinson Girl, a biographical historical fiction novel, and under the penname, Zara West, of the award-winning romantic suspense series The Skin Quartet. Her short stories have appeared in several anthologies, and have received awards from Women on Writing, Stone Thread Publishing, Tryst Literary Magazine, and Winning Writers, and her first historical fiction novel longlisted for the Mslexia Award.
She also the author of the Amazon top-selling Write for Success series, designed to help anyone who writes to write faster and better.
