For my first book, I must admit I was intimated with the task. “Where do I start, am I on the right track, where do I go from here?” Susan’s guidance was invaluable in helping me finish my first book. Susan went above and beyond with her craft, as if my characters were her own but always asking my permission to think in a different direction.  She offered me the insight of a writer, clear guidance, and, most importantly, confidence in my story. No doubt where I’ll turn to for my next. Thank you Susan Hughes, Vida Blue is alive because you believed in me.
