Testimonials

  • “Very inspirational – user friendly and achievable. To me (who has been on many PD's) – this one resonated. It made sense, unpacks writing well and has loads of common sense, creative ideas that should encourage my reluctant writers to flourish.”

  • “The success I do see so far is consistency of language and an excitement and passion about writing that we did not have before.”
    Stacey

  • “I attended a Seven Steps PD and it was AMAZING!!!!  On Wednesday I tried brainstorming around the word "run" and then we wrote some sizzling starts for one minute.  The kids loved it and you could have heard a pin drop during the one minute of writing!!!! Thank you for such an amazing tool and the continuing emails!!!”
