I thought your class was as thorough and comprehensive as any graduate class I've ever taken.

The instructor video feedback sessions gave me new confidence in my ability to write, revise and critique poetic and lyrical texts. I'll be applying what I learned in this class to every manuscript I write! Beyond that, the course left me with a new sense of energy and excitement about writing poetry for publication - and for my own enjoyment. I can't say enough good things about this well-organized, content-rich, and exceptionally FUN course.

Renée has a special skill for communicating her VAST knowledge of language and poetry in a way that is easy to understand. There is a huge difference in possessing the skills and being able to teach them. Renée has this gift. Her class is wonderful! To me it’s just the right balance of mechanics and application.

Renée's Lyrical Language Lab is a master class! Immerse yourself in this rich guide to the intricacies of splendid storytelling and your writing will improve exponentially!

If you want to understand the nuances of writing poetry and, once and for all, sort out how to fix your rhyme and meter, turn to the Lyrical Language Lab. For the love of rhyming and lyrical picture books, spend a few weeks in this illuminating course and learn the rules of writing poetically--with Renée's help. This course is the best thing you can do to amp up your poetic and lyrical knowledge...and have loads of fun doing it!

This was by far the most helpful language-level course I've ever taken. Aside from the lesson-specific exercises, students have the opportunity to rethink their works in progress. That's where the magic happens. The process of rewriting a manuscript or poem in so many different ways opens up the writer to new ideas and approaches. The class helped me completely restructure a prose picture book that was giving me trouble. So thanks, Renée and Lyrical Language Lab!
