The name of Tammy’s writing workshops — TLC — says it all for me. For through her tender, loving and caring ways Tammy manages to guide our small group through enlightening writing projects and experiences. The atmosphere is serene, opening our hearts and minds to the sharing of our personal stories. Trust, confidence and bonding come naturally. I put aside and rearrange my days so as not to miss my memoir meetings.
