Testimonials
I have Victoria to thank for teaching me to take an idea and map it out. She taught me the basics of story structure and the importance of knowing how to discover my characters. I would rewrite scenes over and over again whenever an idea popped into my head, wasting valuable writing time because I never knew how each story would end. I began stories but finishing them was another thing. Some people thrive on writing by the seat of their pants, but I finally realized that I’m not one of them. Even after reading dozens of how-to books, I couldn’t grasp the concept of cause and effect when it came to my characters and the storyline. Victoria listened to me, asked specific questions, and taught me how to plot out a solid outline. She personalized the process to my specific needs. I’m now in the revision stage of my novel. I’ve plotted out the next one and am a third into the initial rough draft. I couldn’t have done it without Victoria’s help.
