Testimonials
Teresa mentored me through the revision of a picture book. She helped me get the manuscript in tip-top shape. More importantly, she helped me find my own authentic voice as a writer from a marginalized community. Teresa is a patient, kind, thoughtful, inquisitive mentor. She uses a breadth of experience as an author to inform her in-depth, writer-centered feedback. I'm grateful for the opportunity to work with her! -- Tim Baase, Queer Kidlit mentee

"Teresa Ho Robeson’s session on Writing a Graphic Novel for the First Time is thorough and packed with great resources. Teresa teaches with high energy and contagious enthusiasm. After taking Teresa’s session, I had all the information I needed to move from talking about writing a graphic novel “someday” to completing my first GN manuscript within the next few months." - Jamie Bills, kid lit author
