Introducing Timeline of Classics - An interview with IEW's Andrew Pudewa and Julie Walker

09Apr 2016 by Gail Ledbetter No Comments

I am pleased to announce the arrival of TLC2!

Wouldn’t you know it? Timeline of Classics (the second edition) hit the presses the very same week I visited IEW’s home base for a week of training!

Not only was I overwhelmed by the beauty of eastern Oklahoma, but I could hardly contain my excitement.

This was the first time I had seen the facility where my chronological book list is being published!

Visiting IEW

I serve the Institute for Excellence in Writing as a Certified online instructor, exhibitor, and author. It was a joy to finally meet so many of the wonderful people I work with at IEW.

During my stay, I was interviewed by Andrew Pudewa (the founder, principal speaker, and director of IEW) and Julie Walker (Andrew’s right arm – aka marketing director).

During our conversation, Andrew suggested that we could subtitle Timeline of Classics: “A Young Mother’s Guide to the Library.”

With those seven words, he captured the entire essence of TLC!

It’s easy to tell from our interview that Andrew Pudewa is a huge fan of books! Here are some audio talks related to the study of literature that you may find useful and inspiring:

I am thrilled to help with your study of the good and great books! After all, I was that struggling mom, too. That is how Timeline of Classics was born.
