What They Say

Write Your Memoir in Six Months was, without question, the most useful and inspiring writing class I have taken. The insight and practical tools I learned about character, dialogue, how to make my story universal through the use of takeaways and reflection inspired me to do another full revision with a sophistication and lens I simply did not have before. Best gift I could have given my writing self!

—Julie Fingersh Writer & Freelance Journalist

Brooke is a truly exceptional editor who transformed my writing, helping me create a deeper, smarter, and more powerful memoir than I could ever have imagined. Over eight months, she extracted multiple layers of meaning from my ideas and anecdotes, and guided me towards a tightly-woven manuscript. Thanks to her probing questions and incisive ability to see the big picture, I ended up not only with a book of which I'm deeply proud, but a far more mature understanding of my experiences.

—Girish Gupta Author of Always Go

Brooke Warner was a literary activist for diversity and equality before it was a movement. As an author-advocate she continues to champion alternatives to publishing's business-as-usual offerings in a straightforward and passionate manner. She was a keynote speaker at the 2020 San Francisco Writers Conference and she blew everyone away!
