Living Proof

I just had my full day Book Blast with Rachel Resnick! She had read my book and saw insights into me and the writing that I would have never found on my own.  This is what every writer needs (newbie or pro), an objective critic who can gently (and not so gently) get you on the right track.

Rachel had such deep insights on what was missing from my book and how to change it. In one day I felt I got a full MFA course on writing. I am excited about getting my book in shape for publication and a clear path for my next steps. Her Book Blast is just what I needed – insights, clarity, an action plan and a massage.”

You, Rachel Resnick are a skilled mentor. The engine in my psyche helping me convert experience and ideas into words that pop and crackle on pages that turn into chapters in the book I didn’t know I was writing until I found you. You are the bellows stoking the fire of a writer’s creativity.

I finished your book Love Junkie and clutched it to my chest, weeping. I wept for you and for me and your brother and your ma and every single person who got a crappy “I-want-love” program installed. your ruthless, heart-searing honesty inspires. I am forever grateful to your courage, compassion and humor.

WOW was Love Junkie intense! Brilliant storytelling, complete vulnerability, and laughs too. If any of you want a WILD ride of a read, get Rachel’s Love Junkie.

 

Rachel Resnick, one of the smartest women I’ve ever met, knows how to throw a writer’s retreat. Not only did I get to write in a French villa high above the sea — like stepping into a dream — I reconnected to my novel and the love and excitement of writing fiction. Rachel is a fearless, nuanced writing coach. She’s not afraid to ‘go there’ and gives you the courage to follow. She’s also possibly the best writing coach I’ve ever encountered. Her workshop helped me deepen as a writer and publish a 3200-word personal essay in the October 2011 issue of Marie Claire. Working with Rachel = great investment of time & money.

 

I took your writing class to learn to express myself. I didn’t realize it would unleash the big ‘why’ of my business. But it did, and I know my business is going to skyrocket because of it. You are AMAZING at what you do.

Thanks so much for your valuable perspective. You hit the nail on the head when you pointed out how linear/in my head I tend to be, yet [business] naming is a creative exercise that needs to flow. My sensitivities have been heightened to words and images as a result of our call. Love your implication that I’m reaching for a movement, not just a business.
