WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT THE FREELANCE WRITERS BOOT CAMP:
"Your class is very practical and I haven't seen anything like it
offered at any of the colleges." - Larry Clouse
"Your strength is your REAL-LIFE stories - that answer questions for
fiction and non-fiction. Just plain listening to someone else's
observations and experiences is what keeps my light bulb on." -
Jeannette DeVane
"I think that there are many out here who are writers who can benefit
greatly from the your knowledge and expertise. The area I received the
most personal benefit from was How to Write a Query. I had no idea
about that part of the article process." - Tad Wilson
"I really enjoyed the workshop. Not only good information, but just
being around all that writing energy is motivating." - Lucy Bell
"I have been letting my stupid job get in the way of doing what I want
and need to do. Your class was just the shot in the arm I've needed
for
quite a while." - Vic Cruikshank
"You are a very informative and experienced teacher and that helps me
believe in myself because you believe in yourself and what you want to
do." - Susan Dougherty
