“Connie May Fowler is the writing mentor and editor I’ve waited a lifetime to find. She is generous and loving in her praise and will believe as deeply in your work as you do, and when your faith waivers she will believe in it even more, helping you see your own accomplishments on the page. But she pulls no punches. She is rigorous and tough in her edits, lovingly but firmly guiding you to take your work to heights you never imagined. She can do this because she pays attention, listening to and honoring both your voice and the voices of your characters. I have had the great gift of working with her for several years now and my work, as well as my belief in that work, have grown exponentially under her graceful tutelage. If you are an aspiring writer, give yourself the gift of working with Connie May Fowler. It will change your writing life.” ~ Elizabeth Peterson, Novelist
