In August 2005 she was invited to a major arts festival at the Cheltenham Racecourse, England, where Anne de Graaf learned about the breadth and depth of creative diversity.

She spent the previous week in May 2001 in Amman giving writing workshops to Jordanian writers and journalists. She’ll be writing about this in her upcoming book of travel stories.

Anne de Graaf speaks when asked, and sometimes even when not asked. She teaches, too, although it’s usually the other way around. When she grows up she wants to be an alligator wrestler, but until that time, she will travel and talk about books, creativity, writing, expanding borders, persecuted Christians, passion or the butt-in-chair nitty gritty of writing.
