7. Don't push for the class to participate. I had two people in my class who never turned anything in for critiquing or read a single sentence to the class. I understood their reluctance. Some writers are naturally reticent while others aren't quite ready for the critical swipe of a red pen. Encourage the shyer students to submit work via e-mail or after class and opt for a private critique, rather than a class-wide discussion of the piece. When the entire class analyzes one student's work, be sure to emphasize as much positive criticism as negative. Remember, it's hard to be the one in the spotlight, with your "baby" being dissected by others.

8. Cover the basics of the business. I went over synopses, queries and copyrights with my students, showing them how to use the available information and where to do research. Although many members of my class were writing for pleasure, the thought of future publication of their work generated hundreds of questions. You don't want to just teach your students how to write a story and then leave them fumbling blindly in the dark, looking for the light at the end of the publishing tunnel.

9. Learn from your students. I don't think any writer ever reaches the point where he or she has nothing else to learn. Some of my students were better at dialogue than me and we had some great discussions about how they made their scenes come alive. I found each member of the class had a strength that the others could benefit from and I encouraged them to share it. That give and take in the classroom resulted in a lecture that was enjoyable for me, both as a teacher and as a student. There were moments when we sat in a group and simply discussed the joys of writing or the different routes to publication. A relaxed, friendly atmosphere gives everyone a chance to create their own education. And finally, the number one lesson to remember: in the best creative writing classes, everyone should get a chance to be both student and teacher.
