TESTIMONIALS

Sadeqa Headshot photo.jpg

“I believe that, when you know something, the gift is in sharing it with others. Iron sharpens iron, and teaching at Story Summit has made me a better writer. I often tell my students that I get as much out of the classes as they do.”

—Sadeqa Johnson, New York Times bestselling author
