What People Are Saying About Working With Laurel
"I have taken a couple of Laurel Brady's workshops and enjoyed them very much. Don't let her bubbly and cheery personality fool you, when Laurel starts the workshop, she really gets down to business! Laurel is focused and has her program well organized, and she sticks to it while being able to give participants time to express and ask questions. She has great ideas for stimulating the creativity of the new writer, and she gives constructive feedback. I now feel encouraged, knowing that my concerns as a new writer are universal, and I feel I have a green light to just go for it, staying in the moment while I create and take care of the next steps when I come to them. Thanks, Laurel! "

"In 'The Prosperous Writers Circle,' Laurel created a warm, inviting, wonderful space to write, explore ideas, journal, center myself and my thoughts, and learn from the other participants. It was an excellent way to start the week, and I looked forward to it every Monday!"
I am a complete novice when it comes to writing, and I could not have asked for a better person to talk to! With no preparation whatsoever, Laurel was able to assess (correctly) where I was at in my journey and where I would like to end up and give me some much-needed homework to get me started. All while being supportive, excited, and professional. If you are looking to progress in your writing career, bring an idea to life, or just have a good pick-me-up conversation. I would call Laurel (like) yesterday.
