Testimonials
“There would be no book without my first writing teacher, Jennifer Schelter, who heard me read one of my letters written to my husband shortly after he died. “There’s a love story here. This must become a book.” We worked through hundreds of letters, exercising the “brevity muscle”, rewriting scenes, dialogue, learning story structure, and patiently she asked: “Where’s the yearning? What does this feel like in your body? Where’s the white, hot center and conflict? She was steady, compassionate, and unrelenting in helping me complete the manuscript towards publication.” – Margaret Mandell, And Always One More Time
“On my path to publication, a very special thanks to Jennifer Schelter, my writing teacher, who spent hours reading my work and who, through her extraordinary talent, taught me how to bring my deepest truths to the page through storytelling.” – Jennifer Kreatsoulas, The Courageous Path to Healing
“She is my writing coach and accountability partner on my journey to publication. I never realized how hard it was to write a book and how brutal the revision process could be. But she held my hand every step of the way. When I wanted to quit, she believed in me and my book and pushed me to make something I am immensely proud of. She also somehow pulled memories from me that I didn’t know I still held. I can’t wait for the opportunity to work together again!” – Jamie Cooperstein, True Hospitality – Lessons Learned from Behind the Concierge Desk
“Jennifer offers real tools and a practical structure. Since working with Jennifer, I write from places I didn’t know were waiting for me because she created a space where unexplored truths felt possible, and my voice, unpolished and reaching, felt like it belonged and mattered. She is a teacher in the truest sense: a guide, an artist, a fellow traveler. And the generosity of her nature, rooted in her own practice of writing, art, yoga, and meditation, makes working with her something very special. I came to study memoir. I stay as a writer.” – Kelly White
