Cello instructor ideal for beginners! Player for 27 years, able to teach intonation, technique, music reading, tuning, and much more.

Marie taught me basically everything I know about writing! Not only is she a published fiction author herself, but she also has many years of experience as a professional copywriter. Her diverse background has given her incredible insight into the writing process, and she’s eager to share that expertise with others. Not only that, but you’ll never find a more compassionate and patient teacher. She’s skilled, she’s experienced, she’s perspicuous… everything you could want in a creative writing mentor!

I’ve attended two writers conferences Marie organized, and they were great experiences. During the second conference I attended her office hours and she helped me work through some difficulties I had with writing by listening and providing helpful, thoughtful methods to handle the issues. Marie is a remarkably kind person and her dedication to the craft of writing is admirable. I think she is an extremely trustworthy teacher.
