I have just recently returned to writing after being away from it for several years. I have a finished manuscript and tried to get it published, but life and discouragement caused me to put it on the back burner. Just recently I was encouraged by my son to revisit it and try again to get it published. It is great to feel the flame being reignited! I will definitely checkout your packets and classes. I am so glad I have found the Writer's In the Storm posts.

I hope to meet you someday. Your posts on WITS always have great examples. And your response does follow the way my writing brain works. Thanks for sharing!

Hello Marcy --

Yes! The tools I teach add power to fiction. No overwriting, no speed bumps, just the right amount of power to make readers turn pages faster! And pre-order your next book.

That's a happy frag. 😉

Hello LizAnn --

You love the power of rhetorical devices too!

If you haven't taken my Deep Editing class, consider the lecture packet.

The full title of the class --- Deep Editing, Rhetorical Devices, and More.

You'd love all those power tools!

So glad you could make the l-o-n-g trip to my house for Immersion class. I loved working with you. Can't wait to read more of your strong writing in Fab 30!
