Instructor: ALEX LORE
ALEX LORE
Alex Jay Lore (he/they) is a queer author of science fiction and fantasy with LGBTQ+ protagonists. When not writing queerness with a chance of explosions, Alex is a high school English teacher, waging epic battles against comma splices and misused apostrophes. His debut science fiction novel, EMPIRE OF LIGHT, written as Alex Harrow, is out now from NineStar Press.
What Students are Saying:
"My teacher, Alex, was so great. He knew the subject well, and communicated it to us (beginners) in a patient, accessible way. He welcomed any questions, and was always fun and light hearted. I hope to take another class from him."
-E. Chardack
"Alex was great. Incredibly inclusive, very insightful, and I walked away with a lot of exercises to develop my author and characters' voices. I don't want to go back to high school, but if I did, I'd want Alex as my teacher!"
-Katie C.
