Published author Anne Bromley is also a writing instructor and consultant who will teach the Professional Certificate in Business Writing program through SDSU’s College of Extended Studies this semester.

She recently wrote her first story picture book The Lunch Thief, which was released by Tilbury House Publishers. A widely published writer and award-winning educator, she has taught professional writing classes for over 20 years.

“The class was excellent. I just received a promotion where I’m involved in writing and editing contract specifications. The instructor brought out a lot of great suggestions in regard to the thought process before one begins to write, which I have already implemented. The instructor did an outstanding job in both her presentation and teaching,” said Scott Tant of Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton.
