Thanks so much for coming to town. I was in the middle of a rewrite that was helping voice and POV, but aside from that, I felt like I didn’t know what to do to improve the story. Wow, now I know, or at least have quite a grocery list of an action plan. Thanks!

I learned so much in such a short time. My manuscript lacked a good climax and scenes were not really plotted. However, I now have tools to get the job done correctly. One of your book recommendations, Art And Fear is really good, and was recommended to me by my husband a year ago, but I didn’t take his advice. Now I’m glad we have it. (He proudly showed it to me.)

Thanks for a great and informative weekend.

Darcy,

I love your description of retreat participants going home “soberly encouraged.” It suits perfectly the way I felt on Sunday afternoon.

Thanks again for the great revisioning tools, and for your wonderful encouragement and support of what can often be challenging process!

I’m looking forward to your book.

Sharon
