"Theo is one of the kindest, practical, and generous teachers I have met on my writing journey. She is not a cheerleader, but she is supportive. She has done the work and shares the nitty gritty of what she knows from a writer’s perspective. "
"Theo is a masterful, generous and extremely practical teacher who absolutely over-delivers on expectations. She's full of actionable information and is deeply invested in her students' success. Plus, this woman knows of what she speaks. Do yourself a favor, enroll."
