Testimonials

“I attended your twitter and social media session at the New England SCBWI conference this spring. Thank you. You lit a fire under my backside! You were fab, funny, and relaxed, so thanks. It even inspired my husband who is a wonderful painter and can connect to many artists too.

Thanks, Molly Burnham (people can email me to find out about how much I loved Katie’s presentation!)

“As the publishing industry continues to change, it is increasingly important for writers to take an active role in their own marketing and promotion. (I took Katie’s seminar) and it is an upbeat survey of the the digital landscape and how to best tap into it’s incredible power to draw attention to your work. For those writers who are intimidated or are underutilizing the blogosphere, this is a must! No technical knowledge required, just check your electronic phobias at the door and enjoy.” –Chris Friden

Thank you so much for the program this evening! I learned more from Katie in one hour than all the research I’d done for months now. She is an amazingly talented and articulate teacher.

Blessings and gratitude,

Lorraine Castro, LMFT

Thank you Katie and Deborah for an amazing, inspiring and wonderful webinar. I can’t wait to put your helpful suggestions into practice. It was an engaging, often hilarious presentation (the slides rocked my socks!) that is sure to stay with me long after this event. Thank you for all the work you did and continue to do. I would love to attend more of these webinars, and it would be amazing if your Podcasting workshop was also made into a webinar.

Sharon Mayhew

I learned about the July 27 webinar with Deborah Halverson through the Cultural Arts of Fairfield County e-newsletter. Thank you both for presenting this material – I filled four pages of my notebook with useful information tonight!

Marika Ford

Fantastic job, ladies!

I feel inspired and plan to “dust off” some manuscripts and get them out there. Also, I belonged to a writers’ group in PA, but have not joined one since moving back to get back into one. As a K-8 school media specialist, I found the comments on the different genre very helpful, but think that this could be another webinar in itself. As teachers we are always struggling to help the kids become aware of the nuances within the different genres.

I did not mind one bit that we ran over time. It was definitely worth it.

Thanks again,

Judy Ignasiak

I can wait to get more…of “Writing YA for Dummies” that is…The intro was enticing, the

speaker inviting and the presentation was fulfilling …an aspiring author just couldn’t ask for more, but I will. I simply can’t wait to have my own copy. Thank you, Great presentation tonight. I’m totally hooked!
