At the associate’s level at Southern Maine Community College, I studied Criminal Justice and Psychology, this included learning to professionally diagnose a patient with a mental disorder. I have a bachelor's degree in Educational Studies from Grand Canyon University, and a masters degree in history also from Grand Canyon University. I also have more than 20 credits in English.

Grades Offered
Bring a paper and pencil to class.
Horror is not a genre everyone is comfortable with and all learners are entitled to creativity. Some scary stories might reference monsters, demons, aliens, or violence of people against people. I will ask that students try to keep stories appropriate for class while still aligning them with the horror genre. 
This is the link to an interview with famous horror author R.L. Stine the creator of the Goosebumps books in which Mr. Stine shares his creative writing process. Viewing is optional.
