Highlight
Vinding teaches a full range of writing classes from composition to creative nonfiction. Her primary interests are the creative process, the lyric essay, and creative nonfiction that explores nontraditional forms. Her essays, poetry, and creative nonfiction have been published in "Ruminate," "Geez," "get born," and "Curator," publications that probe the interplay of faith, community, and the arts. Her spiritual memoir "Triptych" examines faith as a match: a puzzle, a flame, a fight.
