WHAT MY CLIENTS SAY

“Lisa believed in me when others did not and helped shape my journals into what became my memoir. She guided me with skill, integrity and sensitivity, always knowing when to challenge and when to step back. Her experience was invaluable.”
— Darren Ryan, author of Lifeline

“I’d been thinking about writing a memoir about my early years for well – years. It’s easy to think about writing and even easier to procrastinate. Once I’d signed up for Lisa’s course I knew I’d taken the first major step. I learned so much in a short time – how to find my ‘voice’ and most importantly, I actually put pen to paper and started writing. My words are now flowing freely, thanks to Lisa’s expertise and guidance.” – Sandy G, 2026 course attendee.

“I’d had the thought of writing a memoir of experiences buzzing about my head for quite some time, but had no idea how on earth to start. Lisa brought together a small group of writers, dealt sensitively with some delicate subject matter and also provided an appropriate level of humour, whilst outlining the nitty gritty of how to get the thoughts out of my head and onto the page. I’m now have a solid plan of how to proceed and have benefitted from Lisa’s experience, talent and genuine interest in the journey of others. I highly recommend the course. Having Lisa as a cheerleader is a priceless experience.” – Jennifer B, 2026 course attendee.
