“Shannon's feedback on my novel-in-progress was encouraging, honest, and spot on. Sitting down with her was like sitting down with an illustrated road map. She helped me see where I was and where I needed to go. She kindly pointed out all the "attractions"--the interesting, the lovely, the not-so-interesting and the downright horrific--in a way that honored my own sense of direction and made the necessary changes seem navigable.”

--Kimi Eisele

In one-on-one sessions in person, online, via video call or telephone, Shannon will offer individual attention to your writing or manuscript, helping you prepare for publication, for MFA applications or for submission to literary agents.

“As a beginning writer I was anxious...but Shannon’s thoughtful critique of my work has helped  me to really believe in myself and my ability to write.  I can see the growth that I have made under her caring critic's eye.  I would encourage other writers, beginners or accomplished, to seek her assistance.”
