For some reason, my computer won’t go online. I’m not sure why, but after a day of helping Rachael take photos all over town for an English project, and then assisting with the writing of two stories, I don’t even care. Tomorrow I will muster up concern, but tonight has bed calling my name. All my AP high school students plus college students now have big projects due so I am working long hours. I am happy for the work, but can’t wait for a break which comes Thursday when we head off to Texas for a family wedding. I am so glad to have that trip to look forward to. Am so ready for a break. Enough writing on my phone. Time to retire until morning. Happy Friday to all and to all a good night.

Writing Rules!
Private youth and adult writing Teacher
I specialize in short stories, poetry, personal essays, memoir, and college essays. With my guidance, many of my students have won writing contests and/or published their pieces in literary journals, anthologies, magazines, or e-zines.
Many of my high school and college students
have been admitted to their first choice undergraduate and graduate schools due in
large part to their superlative personal statements and college essays.
Sessions are conducted either in person in
Los Angeles or on the phone/Internet.

"There is no one I trust more with my essays, Len turns average writing into extraordinary works of art. The 1,500 mile gap between us
had no effect on how efficiently we were able to prepare my college application essays. I couldn't be more pleased with them and I'm excited to see what doors they have opened for me. She is truly fantastic."
