Our First Release!
The Joy of Giving a Writer Good News
For more than forty years, I’ve worked with writers at every stage—helping them find the heart of their story and the structure that lets it shine. I’ve developed and produced original work for film and publishing, including producing the beloved Beaches starring Bette Midler through our company, All Girl Productions.
• We meet weekly for at least one hour.
• I offer every writer 30 minutes of individual attention each week.
• That balance—a group of five writers plus one on one sessions with me --creates the most growth.
• For writers who want support beyond the page, I offer a clear path to publication through All Girl Publishing. Our first author, Suzanne Lay, has already garnered rave reviews such as:
“If you want mystery with substance - where societal issues are displayed without preaching, and a main character who feels real and worth cheering for - this is essential reading. Anna Kilner’s fight for justice isn’t just about solving a murder; it’s about refusing to normalize corruption, making this a timely, perhaps necessary book for our moment.” –Booksterr
“Lay’s chatty tone and her apparent affection for many of her characters result in a fine cozy mystery. The high school setting and sympathetic teenage characters may attract young adult readers. ,,,an often-engaging whodunit that offers sweet tea and menace in a single serving.” --Kirkus
• Finally, 10% of all proceeds from the Thursday Group support the Write a Great Story Foundation. Reading and writing good stories make us better people. Better people make the world a better place.
Ask Rodrigo or me about registering for the next session which begins on January 29.
