“With Laura’s positive encouragement and insightful suggestions, I have been able to greatly improve the quality of my stories.  The readability of my work is much better since I started incorporating her feedback, and my readers are enjoying the results!”

Laura challenged me to describe what I was thinking when writing about my late wife – a very different perspective than writing what we did as a couple. The depth of emotions that Laura pulled out of me are beyond description. Was it difficult? Yes. But was it valuable? Unbelievably so. 

My main goal was to get motivated to write my life story. I knew I did not want to do this in a (boringly) chronological order but in intertwined vignettes. Not only did the class get me motivated, but it also provided me with techniques for making it interesting — hopefully. [Laura’s] ability to listen and to provide feedback was most helpful for me. She did a great job teaching this class. Her ability to provide really useful feedback respectfully and caringly was most admirable.

Lots of fun. Great discussions and feedback.

Laura is a terrific, supportive, and informative instructor. Will definitely take a class with her again.
