“Blissom’s critique of my story helped me to step back from the latest draft and think about issues of story structure, point of view, and character (among others). Her clarity, encouragement, and perceptive editing helped me to revise the story into something much more in line with my ultimate vision.”
—Sally Z, University of Michigan Hopwood Award-Winner
“The go-to lady for a good listen and a steer in the right direction, especially if you feel your writing is on the wrong track. Talk it through and work it out with a woman who knows about creativity. Believe me, I’ve been there with Blissom, and my writing is sharper for the experience.”

“Blissom is a multi-talented goddess with writing as her cherry on top. She’s produced, emceed, and written PR material and scripts for both my former production company Scandalesque and my new production company PS Presents. Coming up with show themes, she created scripts that evolved each performance from individual acts to a cohesive, well-organized production. I highly recommend working with her!”

“Not only did she mix my personality with my goals for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society’s Woman of the Year Competition bio. But she transformed my stage persona into my very own website that reads just like me! Blissom is WORD MAGIC!”

“If you don’t want to fix your blind spots, advance your craft at a quicker pace, and produce quality writing that will grab the attention of publishers and producers, give Blissom a pass. If you like spinning your wheels and enjoy living in the land of Almost, then she’s not for you.
But if you have a need—a calling, a dream—and a gift inside you that you can’t quite bring to the surface, and you found your way to Blissom, congratulations. You have found one of the top writing coaches in the game. She transformed my writing.”
—Paul Fitzpatrick, Author, New Lightning
“I always look forward to our writing accountability calls, not just because I come away with a million ideas (Blissom’s a whip-smart and hilarious writer and editor!) but she’s extremely generous, and a natural coach and cheerleader. I truly value her perspective and encouragement.”
—Emily, Lifestyle Blogger at theminimalishmama.com
“Blissom has a natural talent of empowering one to write their bio in such a way, that it reads as an exciting story, instead of a monotonous list of facts. Blissom is an effective communicator, a good listener, and she completely takes the stress out of writing.”
