In an effort to help others interested in non-fiction writing, Nancy taught courses at California State University, Northridge, for 15 years before moving north to live on California's Central Coast. Among the courses she most enjoyed teaching were Article Writing, Magazine Journalism, Writing the Non-Fiction Book, and Women and the Media.


Nancy's non-fiction books are now available used and in libraries.
