Writers react to The Beacon:

Thanks for issues of The Beacon. They never fail to add to my constant learning, learning, learning.
Tom Masters, editor, True Blue Spirit magazine at http://truebluespirit.ca/

I wanted to take a moment to thank you for continuing to email me The Beacon. As an emerging writer, I learn a lot from it and I appreciate getting a Canadian perspective. Please keep up the great work! 
Silk Questo, February 2009

 

I spent the better part of the morning reading your blog, your free articles, and many back issues of [Beacon] Flashes. Thank you for what you do.  AND I live for [The Beacon and Flashes] to arrive in my e-mail. You continue to be an inspiration. 
George Lamont, November 2007

You have keen insight in addressing stimulating and important subjects conducive to a successful writing career.
Irene Butler, BCATW, March 2007

 
Your newsletters just keep getting better.
Joyce Gram, editor, http://www.gramediting.com, September 2006
 

The info you send is always so ‘hot-off-the-press’ and highly practical.  
Irene Butler, June 2006

 

I've taken a few of your workshops, one through the SiWC, and have benefited. I am writing now to express my appreciation of your newsletter. 

Jan Murphy, April 2006

 

Just to let you know how much I appreciate your newsletter - short, informative and to the point.
