About Gwen
August 29th, 2009 — Gwen MinorI have been a literary events coordinator for Edinburgh Castle Pub in San Francisco, a stage manager, and a bookseller.
My teaching efforts have been featured on NPR’s Sound Money and I have spoken at the National Council of Teachers of English convention on the power of ancient story. I give workshops at San Francisco’s annual Kidquake/Litquake festival, and my book, Read Aloud Plays: The Iliad, The Odyssey, and The Aeneid, (under my maiden name Gwen Bowers) was published in January 2007 by Scholastic. I am currently working on other books set in ancient lands.
In addition to performance-based visits, I am available for these services:
Writing Services
- personal writing coach
- consultation on book proposals
- editing (from structural to line)
Educational Services
- curriculum consultant
- lecturer
- individual tutor
- group workshops
