LIMITED TIME OFFER!

50 Unordinary Questions to Kiss Writer's Block Good-Bye! is designed for students in the arts, humanities and social sciences who struggle with blank page syndrome. Instead of staring at a flashing cursor and reading one text after another waiting for inspiration to strike, you'll have a set of thought-provoking questions that guide you toward deeper analysis and original ideas. It's amazing what happens to your writing (and your grades!) when you stop looking for answers and start asking questions.

Not knowing what to say takes time you don't have and makes writing harder than it needs to be. But with the right questions, all that changes! Your best ideas rise to the surface, and instead of worrying about what to say, you begin wondering what to cut.

Full Disclosure.

As a student with lots of commitments, tight deadlines - and most likely a tight budget - I completely understand that you want to put your time and money into things you know will get you results.  While I understand and recognize your concerns, I don't offer refunds. I try to be as transparent and clear as possible in my product descriptions so you have all the information you need to make an informed decision. 

   On a final note, if you're not completely satisfied with your purchase or you feel like you were mislead by the product description, I appreciate feedback and certainly encourage you to share your thoughts and concerns with me. I strive to offer the best possible service to each one of my clients and I know that listening is the only way to ensure I achieve this goal.
