“I loved being able to see how others at the workshop think. In the end, what connects us are human struggles, and what differentiates us is what we write. Before the workshop, I did not consider myself to be a writer; now I do.”

“I value the Amsterdam Writing Workshops for the diversity, perspectives, and commitment to the writing of the people in the room, all of which is nourishing. I feel I have a new way of looking at—and organizing—my material. Taking the course has relieved some of the pressure, giving me a process I can focus on and trust.”

“I learned techniques for writing dialogue; How to write more coherently; and I learned how to channel the unconscious into story.
I was so inspired by the helpfulness of the writers in this workshop, and their intentional listening.”
