Ava Klinger lives just outside of Boulder, CO (her hometown). Her greatest passions include permaculture, dance, art, right livelihood, education, food, travel, history and the art of storytelling.
Ava graduated from the University of Colorado at Boulder in 2007 with a degree in Humanities with an emphasis in Russian History and German Language. After several years working for Gaia University as an admissions counselor she decided to take her education to the next level. In 2014, Ava enrolled in a Masters program with Gaia University for writing and publishing.
In addition to work and school, Ava is currently working on her debut novel, the first book in her young-adult trilogy. She is also a professional member of the Boulder Writers’ Workshop.
Hi Ava….I read your “How to Write Your First Novel…..” article three times. I’m a retired BVSD woodshop teacher and volunteer blacksmith at Walker Ranch. I have had this story in my head for around six years now and it won’t let go. I’ve had a few articles published about experiential education from grad school and this would be a first attempt at a young adult novel based on the 1859 Colorado gold rush combined with local history. I’m looking for a group of local writers that might give me a hand at getting this project off the ground.
Any suggestions how I find some kindred souls?
Thanks,
Dave Pence
