Teaching
Elizabeth (Madame Frankie Karamazov) Rollins currently teaches writing at Pima Community College. Fall 2010, she will be teaching Curious Beginnings: Introductory Fiction Workshop at the University of Arizona's Poetry Center.
In March 2011, at the Tucson Book Festival, she’ll be participating on a panel entitled “The Writing Life: Making Time When You Have None” with poets/teachers Laynie Browne and Eric Magrane.
Madame Karamazov's teaching began in 2000, conducting writing courses at community colleges in NJ and PA. She developed and began a series of writing workshops for adults in Collingswood, NJ, which ran for nine years. As a teaching artist, she taught creative writing workshops for NJ Writer's Project in schools around the state, and co-taught with visual artists in the Visual Poetry program run by Rutgers-Camden.
Through her affiliation with Corvid Writers, she has mentored and edited multiple manuscripts, with a special focus on visionary and structural assistance with projects.
