I took a Writing Tree course through my local online writing group, and then came to Helen for mentoring. I have Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Helen was very understanding and accomodating of my disability, and helped me to work out new writing habits that worked with my variable energy. She always seems to have fresh ideas to help when I’m stuck! The session was about character work which my group thoroughly enjoyed. If I had to sum up the Writing Tree I’d say ‘infectious enthusiasm’ and ‘highly knowledgeable’!
I’ve had writer’s block for years and this course finally broke it. The Writing Tree approach is very non-judgemental and gentle. I learned how to enjoy my writing again.
