"Never having taken a writing class, I was pretty apprehensive about it and unsure if I was in the right place. Upon meeting Valley and the group, I felt instantly at home and safe to share not only my beginner writing skills, but the contents of my mind. Valley’s supportive and non-judgmental feedback, coupled with the shared experience of the group, gave me the confidence I needed to put myself out there as a writer."

"Valley creates an atmosphere of safety which allows for vulnerability in our writing and sharing. Her clear support and interest in each one of us as she responds to our writing is helpful and healing."
