Testimonials

"Thank you both very much for a most wonderful day. I was unaware to what extent my old insecurities were holding me back. Fear of failure. Fear of rejection. Fear of over-accessorizing. But I felt so comfortable and brave in the company of those generous writers today." --Anne, Lexington, MA

You have made this whole (college essay) process so much less stressful for all of us and we appreciate all you have done." -- Concord mother

"Thanks again for all of your help on the college application essays. He has a lot of choices! He applied to 8 schools and has been accepted at all but one and wait-listed at another. He's feeling really good about getting in at so many places, as he should!" -- Sudbury mother

"Something great happened to me in your creative writing class last night which I cannot quite put into words! It has been many years since I sat on the other side of the desk and was a student instead of the teacher. It was a powerful experience after so many years. I enjoyed the class and the challenges it presents and the tools you are providing with which to meet it. It took me a long time to get to sleep last night as I was already thinking about the assignment topic and suddenly something popped into my head....I couldn't help but start applying the 5 senses to my story." -- Heather, Bedford, MA

"You are very thorough and thoughtful with your edits. And you have definitely exposed my consistent patterns (like passive sentence structure vs active). Thanks so much."
