I help you navigate the writing journey with confidence.

What I like the best about this class is that even though my child was the only one enrolled, the teacher was kind enough to not cancel the class and teach my child. Thank you Ms. Conroy!

Gina has excellent lesson plans, thorough homework packages and really engages the kids. Our daughter enjoyed her interactive teaching style.

Great practice using lessons learned from the Perfectly Powerful Paragraphs series. appreciate that Ms Conroy takes the time to provide feedback on each child’s work. Great class.

This class was awesome ! Mrs. Conroy provided great materials and instruction. My son really LEARNED ! Would take again.

Gina is an exceptional teacher. I've seen a big improvement in my son's writing in such a short time. Highly recommend this class.

My son loves the writing class! The teacher makes it fun and takes time with him. I very much appreciate Gina's patience and amazing communication skills.

We love ms ginas classes! She works hard to inspire others to love writing and creating their own stories!

My 10 year-old daughter really enjoyed this writing class and is excited to take more classes with Gina.

My son loves this class. He learned a lot of ways to polish his sentences. This teacher is well experienced.

Mrs. Conroy is very nice and prepared the class with great teaching materials and supplementary learning resources. A great class for kids to learn writing basics.

Awesome class! My son learned so much and is a more confident writer now. The teacher was very patient with him and gave constructive and helpful feedback for the assignments and lessons.

This was a fun, interactive experience, much like a virtual escape room. Gina talks to kids, but does not talk down to kids. She is warm and approachable, making the experience pleasant for all.

Ms Conroy is thorough and very patient with kids, even reluctant learners. I'm beginning to see improvements in my child's writing. We signed up for a couple of sessions which has helped him with school work.

My daughter (14yrs) really enjoyed this class series. She felt it was a solid starting point for people who want to get into writing but don't know where to begin. She was exactly that and is now off and running with her novel! Thanks Gina!

Very nice class! I like the materials that were given. We can now go back and use them as a reference as we continue to work on writing with my 6th grader. Struggling paragraph writers would benefit from this class.

My kids got this book and went through it at a writer's conference with Gina. Holy cow--they were ecstatic by day's end! They both started through the book not sure exactly what would happen, but by the time they finished, they couldn't help but talk over each other as they told me how they'd each created a FULL plot for their novels, added all kinds of twists and turns, had great ideas for characters and more. If you're looking for a good novel-creating book for your kids, look no further. And if you can catch Gina at a writer's conference, have your kids attend her class. Great stuff!

How do you teach a young person how to write a novel? It's not enough to expose them to good books--although that is essential. And they need more than simply a breakdown of plot. All writers, regardless of their age or level, need to understand the nuances of story, the layers of a character, how to put a scene together as well as how to wordsmith their stories. However, teaching a young person these elements can feel stale and overwhelming. They're driven by their passion--but they need a few rules and parameters to help them build a winning story. Enter Gina Conroy's terrifically fun and creative writing primer for teens-Release the Novel in You! Gina has a heart for teen writers and she's put that heart into crafting a writing instruction book that doesn't feel like a writing instruction book. From its engaging and fun presentation, delightful acronyms, playful look at analyzing a story and application sections, it takes the rules out writing and turns it back into what it should be--fun! Practical and specific, it covers everything from story structure, to characterization, to the hero's journey to writing fixes--everything an intermediate writer needs to take their story from an idea on the page to a novel. I've known Gina for years--watching her learn these very techniques, put them into action in her novels, and help teenagers dive into the world of storycrafting. Her techniques are guaranteed to put the fun back into learning how to write and to release the budding novelist in you!

I purchased this book as my 10 year old grandson is starting to write stories and this book was recommended by his teacher in middle school. He told me that the book has helped him in writing his stories, thus it was well worth the price.
