The Fiction Class

“You’ve known there was something special about you for a long time, haven’t you?”  With these words, the students in Susan Breen’s The Fiction Class are introduced to their instructor, Arabella Hicks.  Arabella is a skilled professional, though she certainly doesn't feel that way when she makes her weekly visits to her mother.  Every Wednesday after teaching her mismatched group of aspiring writers, Arabella then steels herself to spend time with the one person who makes her crazy.  Elements of her two roles begin to mingle, and it is through this curious combination that Arabella finds her own true voice.  Possibly the next-best thing to attending a writing seminar of your own, The Fiction Class is a tribute to those who appreciate the craft of finding just the right words to tell a good story.
