"Robyn's challenging invitation to look at ourselves and our
priorities made for a great spring women's health workshop here
at our women's center. The blending of her own insights and personal
experiences with responses from participants created a comfortable,
non-threatening learning experience. The theoretical was effectively
meshed with the practical, and humor was in abundance. All in all,
a very inspiring morning!" -- Sarah Mulkey, Director, Women's
Health Vera West Women's Center, Abilene, Texas

their writing a top priority.

a second look from editors and agents.

perspective of networking.

insights are amazing." --Thomas B. Sawyer, head screenwrirter

"Robyn Weaver is one of those rare talents who instinctively
knows how to improve a sentence, paragraph or chapter. She also
knows the contemporary marketplace--who's buying what, what options
authors have, and what trends are affecting the publishing industry.
I have no hesitation in recommending Robyn as a workshop presenter.
She's always willing to share her insights with others. Take advantage
of it. You won't regret it." -- Ray Newton, Director of Reader's
Digest Writing Workshops, author of numerous articles and retired
instructor from Northern Arizona University
