“Today’s workshop with you had a truly significant impact. About halfway through, the proverbial light bulb went on and the approach to and structure of my half-written memoir became crystal clear. It had been a stumbling block for so long and the “ aha!” moment was exhilarating. Thank you, thank you, thank you!””
“Just watched Alison’s masterclass this morning and it brought back great memories of her instruction and encouragement.
I have two memoirs published since taking Alison course 5 years ago.
A third should be out this fall.
Alison’s tips and frameworks are invigorating!”
“I would shout from the rooftops if I could:
Alison is a fabulous and inspiring teacher and this is a wonderful opportunity!
Seize this moment. It could be life-changing.”
