An educator and former conscientious objector who served his country by teaching in Alaska in the 70's, the photos captured snippets of time he feared he'd forget forever.
But Don decided to write about some of his memorable photos. And what came next would turn into his memoir, Hardship Alaska.
You will learn:

* An editor or book coach can help ask the right questions to spur change.
*Don's tips for turning a photo into written scenes.
