"I came to the Rekindle Creativity Retreat needing personal time to write and plan. I also needed to be with writers who are serious about their craft even though we were all at different stages of our careers. Liisa and Dinah were warm and welcoming and used their vast knowledge as writers and teachers to give us the feedback and direction we needed. I highly recommend their retreat!" ~ Emily De Angelis

"Dinah and Liisa created a completely welcoming environment, sparked great conversations and had incredible book and publishing knowledge to convey. I especially enjoyed the 1:1 sessions. They were able to assess where I am at in my writing and publishing journey and meet me there. I feel seen." ~ Daphne Gordon

This is my second Rekindle Retreat and I can’t wait for the next one. The venue, the participants and the coaches were excellent. I was able to tap into my writer’s heart and let the words flow. Liisa and Dinah made sure we didn’t have to worry about a thing except for being present." ~Holly Gutwillinger

"I am so pleased I joined the Rekindle Creativity in Gore Bay in October 2024. I was stuck in my writing and the place, the group, and especially the writing coaches all contributed to unlocking what had blocked. I highly recommend Liisa and Dinah if you are looking for a writing coach." ~Anne-Marie Mawhiney
