I had been writing for many years and had several published books under my belt when I decided to join the Children’s Writers Coaching Club… and boy, am I glad I did!

It is is one of the best career decisions I’ve ever made.

The weekly teleclasses, critiques and moral support have kept me more focused and productive than ever before. I used to struggle juggling many projects at the same time and, naturally, I tended to panic and freeze and become overwhelmed, but shortly after joining the club I learned how to work with weekly plans and now I can’t live without them. I’m able to work on several projects without getting overly stressed and most importantly, I’m producing a lot of written work and submitting to publishers on a steady basis.

I’ve learned that the most important part of completing a long project (such as a novel) is to make progress each day, no matter how little, to stick to it until the end. Of course I knew this in theory before, but Suzanne’s constant encouragement and time management techniques have made all the difference.
