Testimonials

"I really enjoyed the session on reviving a flagging scene, done by Craig. I felt that it had just the right amount of presentation by the facilitator versus discussion within the group. I also enjoyed the scene writing session by Chris DeGuire. He explained some unique techniques, and allowed us time to do writing to try them out."

-- Lisa K.

"[My favorite] session was to be a discussion about Creative Life/The Business of life balance. There were only three people, including myself. We only discussed the original topic for about 15 minutes then ended up moving into a very in depth discussion about character development. I love that we allowed the topic to flow with where ever the conversation took us. Of course that was probably due in part to the small size of the group."

-- Nathan R.

"[I liked] the flexibility and informal but professional style of all the workshops."
