Gessner, Jennifer: - "I believe everyone has a story (or many) to tell and I specialize in helping people learn to write their stories and shape them into their own masterpieces. I take a practical approach based on my firm conviction that writing is a skill that can be learned through practice - just like playing an instrument or a sport. And while some of us are natural musicians, others are natural athletes, and some are natural storytellers, each of us can learn the steps of any skill and practice them to achieve personal greatness."
