We wanted a website that truly reflected us, our values, and most importantly our voice. We went as far as we could on our own, but nothing sounded quite right and we were constantly frustrated and stuck. Mara helped us get our thoughts on paper, and together we were able to shape our ideas into professional quality output. We are quite proud of the results, and we never could have done this without her help.

I had been a financial planner for about 15 years and knew I “had a book in me.” Mara came recommended by a colleague, so after checking her web page, I decided to give her a call. Having never worked with a writing coach, I had no idea what to expect. The experience was better than I could have ever imagined. My initial goal of a 5,000 word white paper, grew into a 33,000 word manuscript. Mara helped me find my “inner voice” and turned my little project into a passion. We worked on it for about nine months, so in a way, it really was my “baby!” Mara was absolutely invaluable. Not only did she help me with the project at hand, but she transformed my writing by orders of magnitude and made me infinitely more confident. I look forward to working with her on future projects. I highly recommend Mara to any writer, whether for a specific project, or just to hone and refine their skills. She has a gift!

I recently wrote a white paper. After spending several months researching the subject matter and writing and rewriting my paper, I decided to hire Mara Lynne of Writing Success Now. I had heard about Mara from some colleagues over the past few years but to be honest, I was skeptical. I consider myself a good writer and I wasn’t sure what Mara could add given that she wasn’t an expert on the issues I was writing about.

After just one session with Mara, I knew I had made a good decision by hiring her. Mara was able to show me perspectives I had not thought about. She challenged me to connect to my target audience and helped deliver a clearer, more compelling message. Each session I felt that I was improving as a writer, as Mara helped me better express my message. She also did a great job on the graphic design of my white paper.

Overall, Mara had a tremendous impact on my white paper and helped me produce something I am truly proud of. I would not hesitate to recommend her and I look forward to working with her on my next writing project.

I was stuck with"blogger's block"and hadn't had the inspiration to write on my blog for months. Thanks to working with Mara, I'm back on track and writing again. Best of all, she gave me a slew of great ideas to inspire my posts for months to come. I highly recommend her coaching!

I worked with Mara to develop web content for my new website. I was immediately struck by her consummate professionalism and deep knowledge of expert writing skills. Mara helped me take some basic ideas of what I wanted to say and turn them into a polished finished product. I would highly recommend Mara for any project requiring assistance in turning some rudimentary thoughts into professional and effective material. The tools and techniques I learned while working with Mara will help me in the future as I prepare and create my service branding and marketing materials. I am eternally grateful for Mara's leadership and assistance at a time I needed it most!

Not only is Mara Lynne an absolute pleasure to work with, she also has remarkable talent. No need to look any further for an editor or design professional. I am so fortunate to have worked with Mara. Her quality of work is outstanding. Through all the stages of publishing, her support and guidance was of superior quality. Because of the work we have done together, I am immensely proud of my book. In my book, she is “the solution!"

Learning to write was something that I thought would be difficult. Working with Mara, not only did I learn how to write but it was actually easy, and I started to have fun. Mara helped empower me to write about the most sensitive subject of all -- myself and my company’s services. She help me find a way to put it in my own words so people would connect with me. I would recommend Mara to anyone who was learning to start writing or wanting to improve their writing skills.

Audrey’s Angels took a huge leap forward through our writing engagements with you! You guided us through a process where we learned to articulate the passion in our hearts into clear objectives. You led us through an effective writing process: from identifying our audiences and desired results of each to a culminating dynamic multimedia presentation where we could effectively share our vision. Our script grew in richness where we could easily apply “bites” to our web site, our marketing schemes and our fundraising events. We felt our branding has emerged in a vibrant and uniform way. The tools you gave us, Mara, transferred to all areas of our organizational development.

And truly, the bottom line is the response we have received each time we have spoken to groups. Our audiences get who we are and support has been pouring in! We have increased our financial support, our angels and board members, and have acquired needed equipment.

One additional side effect, unpredicable from the onset, is working with you has allowed me the experience of joy in developing my own personal expressive ability. 

Thank you, Mara, for sharing your gift of guided pen and for making a huge difference in forwarding Audrey’s Angels!

It is very important to us that our voice be heard in our writing. For me, that is Mara’s greatest strength. She gets us, and really knows how to help us share our voice with others. She teaches without judging. Every call with Mara brings with it new awakenings and inspirations. Writing has become a part of our life. Regardless of the type of writing, Mara can help you achieve phenomenal results. We continue to work with Mara, and know that she has been the critical link in all of our writing success.
