She gathered my scattered, though enthusiastic, thoughts and ideas and showed me the way to make them into a cohesive, compelling pitch. I always want to learn more from her whenever the opportunity pops up. For me, Dianne was almost a mind-reader.

As importantly, she's a generous coach and author in her own right whose hands-on classes and instruction will no doubt set you on your way to writing and writing more. Whatever it is, you won't be sorry you've signed up for her class. I certainly wasn't. In 2007, Dianne helped me craft my idea into a proposal that got me an agent, and it sold within a month. My book, "My Nepenthe: Bohemian Tales of Food, Family, and Big Sur," (all 352 pages of it) will be out this fall.
