Marcy Petrini writes and teaches to preserve her crafts.

Marcy Writes

Marcy writes in order to teach and she teaches in order to write. 

Classes, seminars and talks are all improved by instruction manuals, monographs and other kinds of handouts.  In turn, students have been an inexhaustible source of novel and challenging questions, which in turn have led to new monographs, "Right from the Start" articles and revisions of existing works.

“Writing allows me to focus on a topic and adds clarity to my thinking.  By finding different ways to organize the material, I find better methods to present it to the reader as well as to teach my students.”
