Margaret H. Willison
is a writer, podcaster, and educator based in Boston, MA. Her specialty is teaching people how to make connections between the art they love and their own lives. From Jane Austen to Taylor Swift, if a bookish brunette loves it, Margaret has probably designed a program dedicated to it. If she’s done her job right, you will leave her classes with a deeper understanding of both the texts you study and yourself.

Mansfield Park: Adaptation as Empathy is a 7-week long virtual workshop I ran in spinrg 2025. Every Monday night from March 3rd-April 14th, we will gathered to discuss Jane Austen’s Mansfield Park, using adaptation as a lens to enrich our understanding of the text. If this class sounds interesting to you, you can purchase access to the archived class recordings to get a sense of what it was like. I will share our reading pace, discussion questions, and writing exercises in case you want to work your way through the course in a self-guided format.
