“I would have quit writing if it wasn’t for The Fiction Lab and Katrina!”
Chris Williams
“Honestly, without The Fiction Lab and Katrina, I think I would’ve dropped writing altogether. Writing a book is hard, but Katrina and the rest of the gang make navigating the slog so much easier and enjoyable.”
