"I never would have believed two days could mean so much. Thanks for teaching us to trust one another and grow in our writing. The wisdom of fellow students, their writing and the special bond we felt (still feel) is worth sharing."
June Smith, Braselton, GA
University of Iowa Summer Writing Festival
I woke at 4 and lay flopping like a carp prodded by a new awareness: I can do this. I can write. And like Dustin Hoffman's Graduate, a grin emerges as I see myself riding off in the back of the bus with my new bride, Confidence."
Dr. Paul Timm, Orem, UT

"My rather cavalier approach to my writing-cute little shoes with bows, comfy but fashionable-was like believing the good intentions in my heart and mind would carry the weight needed to make the writing good. I've set that aside now for a more sturdy and serviceable pair of shoes. I am lacing them up, tying the bows and setting out on new paths."
Nancy McGlasson, Knoxville, TN

"I never realized how revealing writing from the soul can be. I have journaled for years but nothing this deep. This is a great experience for me and totally NEW learning. I love that you and Joyce Rupp got together because spirituality has been my number 1 for quite a while and now to implement this writing will be another way to really connect."

"It was a tectonic-plate-shifting time!"

During the retreat, Joyce and Mary Kay offered me the perfect complement-a safe, spirit-filled place to finally begin putting on paper my unrecognized, unresolved or never-celebrated stories, feelings and truths. Hallelujah!"
Jackie Goettsch, Clive, Iowa
