What Around the Block Participants Have to Say
"I have been going over your comments on my poems and truly appreciate all the work you put into them... The past three years, beginning with the workshop I took with Liz, Sara and Tracy, have been the most gratifying and stimulating I have ever spent. I was looking for something that would occupy me when I retire, little suspecting I would find a preoccupation with words that has opened so many new avenues of interest... I'm glad to be going Around the Block again."
Kathleen W., Texas
"You were so RIGHT on the suggestions you gave me. I really see them! Thanks so much... It's so nice having you "hold my hand." ... I am looking forward to our next assignment."
Barbara V., Michigan
"What a great idea. My sister and I have been talking about what I could do to stay focused on my writing because my job eats up so much of my time. Joining a writing circle and expecting to meet with others once a week is not realistic for me at this point. But being able to send things off to y'all and get feedback gives me the incentive to keep writing and that good feedback that I so badly need. I'm excited about doing this."
Nancy S., Georgia
"Sure am enjoying this. I have been checking my e-mail twice a day for the next set of prompts. Finally here... I like these prompts."
Rosa H., Pennsylvania
"Thank you for your EXTREMELY valuable comments. I truly appreciate the work you put into this. Makes me feel good... I love that you see so clearly where I can tighten things up... a great learning experience for me."
