Colleen is amazing. She does all of my marketing pieces for me. I can take Colleen all of my random thoughts and information, and after really listening to what is important to me she turns it into a piece that not only reflects what I want to say but also reflects me. This is because not only is she a gifted writer but she has the ability to put people at ease. - Jeanette Stevenson
Colleen has been incredibly helpful in pulling out what I am trying to say and forming my words to be direct and powerful. - Racheal Hernandez
I have always wanted to write but didn't have direction or coaching plus a huge fear. Since taking classes with and working with Colleen Kappeler, I have gained confidence, learned how to organize my material, and lost my fear of reading my pieces to others. I especially like the way Colleen instructs and her great way of giving advice for improvement, plus her enthusiasm when something really is well written. Writing has become the joy I always knew it could be. - Karen Knurr

Colleen's insight and critique of my work are honest and inspiring. She's helped me blossom as a writer, more than I could ever have hoped for. I've attended classes and workshops led by esteemed authors and literary professors but none of them were more motivating or made more of an impact than Colleen has. Her approach is practical, down to earth and tailor made for each individual. I always walk away from Colleen's classes believing in my writing and in myself. - Christine Baerbock
There are times when writers' block becomes a wall. Every time that happens to me, you have skillfully guided me past that barrier. Most recently, when I struggled with a highly emotional piece, you edited the draft and were able to pinpoint exactly what I was trying to say and where I was getting derailed. As always, you made valuable, practical suggestions that led to a finished product that conveyed exactly what I intended to say. Thank you! - Tamara Walters
