Reviews:
Laura Drake’s Advanced Craft Coaching is an exceptional opportunity to work one-on-one with a talented and caring author. Her teaching approach was of great value, helping me polish the opening pages of my historical fiction novel in a hands-on way that will alter my approach to crafting future first chapters. I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience.
