"This course did not come at me too fast. I could get to it a little at a time. Some lessons took more time than others; but that balanced with the easy ones. I have been able to see myself in a different way. Set me on a new path; thought provoking."

Sue Coulston, from Australia, had this to say about this course. . .
"This course is quite in depth, taking the person into many ways to rediscover forgotten memories, and helps one to put these ideas, memories into an order. This has been helpful for me as I tend to get swamped and don't quite know how to put it all down. Many thanks for this highly beneficial course."

"Through innovative exercises, Sandra Schubert helped me create a container for my innermost feelings where I had a chance to gain insight and awareness. Through journal writing and scrapbooking, I was able to record personal experiences and honor the moments in my life that sought authenticity and validation. Because Sandra’s unique approach to journal writing is so liberating, I highly recommend the Writing for Life course to creative writers, therapists, and teachers for their own possibilities and that of their clients in the healing power of language."

Clarity and purpose are linked in this inviting journey. Writing for Life:
Creating a Story of Your Own is a gentle and well thought out program to
guide the writer without interference. This is a journey that helps one
discover more about the inner self. This should be a mandatory 101 course
for all freshmen everywhere.

Dani Antman, a healer and artist from New Jersey,
had this to say about the course. . .
In reviewing the creative writing course, I was impressed with the large
variety of exercises given to stimulate the imagination and get folks writing
quickly. I like the format, which is specific and focused on one or two things for
each lesson. This enables people to not build up too much resistance or
procrastination. I liked the quotes picked by the author and the examples of
processes that were shared. All in all, if someone follows this course they will
have a large writing file, with a variety of topics that they could explore
further. I would recommend this course.

Opening Up: The Healing Power of Expressing Emotions,
noted:
"Writing for Life: Creating a Story of Your Own" is a creative and
thoughtful guide to self-understanding. In 20 lessons, she takes the students'
hands and leads them through a series of exercises that deal with family,
spirituality, health, the future and the past, and other topics central to
human existence. This is a very nice journaling project that could be helpful
for millions.

Frank Watt of New York, NY, said this
about this course. . .
This excellent course has opened up the doorway of self-discovery that has
allowed me to identify my true self. I wholeheartedly recommend it to all.
Lesson 20, the final lesson begins with the question: "What’s Next"?
The question seems to be indicating that life in a sense is lived backwards in
order to go forward. To continue to write for life is to find out who I am and
why I live. Writing about my life story will indeed lead me closer and closer
to my true identity as it generates the needed energy to complete my journey.
There is much more hidden within my life that needs to be explored and mined,
for when I unite the past with the present, the hidden treasure is then
discovered. My journal will be supported by inspired reflections that will
define "Who I am".
