I do more writing in Lindsey’s class than I do for the rest of the week. The structure she brings to the space is so helpful, and the creative prompts are just enough to spark flow without overwhelming. Sarah's physical warm-up has been a revelation. For anyone who speaks Aussie out there - Lindsey is a little ripper!

"This is the class I didn't know I needed, because it makes me show up and face myself. Then getting strength-based support is the most unusual format compared to all the critiques elsewhere who echo the inner critic. So much positivity here...
Class is a positive supportive place... It's been such a healing process!"
Soness Stevens, Tokyo Japan (TEDx Speaker, Comic, Communicator)
“I’m typically an overthinking writer. I edit as I write, my pace is slow, and the journey is often more tedious than it ought to be. Lindsey’s class showed me how to let the words flow and helped me see that my voice is just as powerful when I do so. WoW has given me such confidence and ease in my writing ability -- I feel like I could write anything!”

"Lindsey is an amazing and inspiring writing teacher. She provides exercises that get your writing brain flowing and is always full of great suggestions when you get stuck or just need a spark of creativity. Her feedback is positive and constructive as needed and having her support through the long —and sometimes arduous journey — we all take as writers is invaluable. I highly recommend taking a class with Lindsey and experiencing her energy and creative generosity yourself."

Lindsey’s warm and welcoming personality is a huge factor in the great success of this program. I’d always enjoyed writing but simultaneously also always struggled with starting. Lindsey provided prompts or assisted students to find, create and share prompts which always lead somewhere. Lindsey taught me to trust the process and gave me strategies to ensure that I could keep writing. The positive feedback model that Lindsey embraces, created a safe environment which enabled me to share deep, personal experiences with near strangers. It has been an honour and an inspiration to experience the rich and diverse writing of others, including Lindsey herself. Lindsey is warm, genuine and an astute thinker. The perceptive and valuable feedback received from her as well as from other class members assisted me in editing my bare bones writing and see beauty and worth in my writing. In addition to her positively powerful classes, Lindsey also led me to useful resources and strategies to help me write in my own time. After only a few classes I already have a compilation of raw memoirs which I intend to have published.

"This class has helped me rediscover my love of creative writing. The small group encourages openness and honesty. I would recommend WoW writing class for anyone looking to find their voice through writing."
CT Adams, Los Angeles USA (Standup Comic)
There are a few reasons why I decided to take Lindsey's online WOW classes. Her infectious positive energy and can-do attitude are always inspiring. I found this class, filled with supportive like-minded people to give honest criticism on my work invaluable as I build my writers portfolio. WOW allowed me to share my writing in a space that felt safe and supportive. This class allows freedom to build short pieces of work that can be developed further, or polished to stand alone as small ideas within a complication. If you take this class in the morning, it serves as a wonderful way to start the day and get the thought process going. Based in Croatia, writing in the evening was a way to divert from the day's activity and switch the thought process to something fun and challenging. Even writers' block is tackled as there are prompts if you need them and plenty of opportunities to express your writer's voice.

“I have known and been writing with Lindsey for over a year now and am so grateful for such a connection and outlet during the pandemic. You can tell Lindsey has a passion for writing and brings that to the pieces she produces and to the feedback she provides to us. But it’s not all about writing with Lindsey; it’s also about the connection, laughter, growth and the art form. Our writing session is the highlight of the week!"

“Each class starts with a relaxation exercise that helps get you into a creative space. I’ve never written so much and been this creative in my storytelling. And it’s helping me in all aspects of my life. I’ve been working with Wave of Writing for the past few months and it’s been brilliant!”
