What Others are Saying About The Center for Life Story Writing
AUTHOR and WRITING COACH SHARON LIPPENCOTT

We were delighted to discover that Sharon Lippincott, Western Pennsylvania author and well-known life story writing coach, found our web site. Her blog address and Amazon link to her book are below. Here is what she wrote about us:

Every now and then I come across a website about lifestory writing that is worth mentioning. Today is one of those days. I just came across the site for The Center for LifeStory Writing, sponsored as a ministry by College Church of the Nazarene, Olathe, Kansas.

The site includes a long list of enjoyable stories, I have not read all of them yet, but the several I did read were delightful.

While there, read some stories. You are sure to get some great ideas for tales of your own, and it is always interesting to read stories written by regular people, rather than the super polished ones in books on library shelves. There is also a link with guidelines for submitting stories

I am adding this site as a permanent link in my blog sidebar, and I will be happy to add others, as long as they give actual advice or post stories, and are not primarily commercials for products and services.

Attaboy, you are inspiring me to break out of my procrastinational stupor. You are the absolute best. lb

Thank you for inspiring me. Obviously you inspire hundreds of others also. You are a blessing. jw

Appreciated your thoughts about passing on what we are really trying to live by, even before our offspring have told us they notice. Thanks. ck

Thanks for your untiring work at assisting people in the telling of their stories. I just think it is wonderful that you were led to put together this vehicle for packaging all of these stories. me

I would love to do the spiritual legacy thing too. I look forward to more. Maybe I will jot down some things. cs

I got a lump in my throat when I read your comments about Lea Marvin. There will be no more stories from her and those precious ones she did write will be cherished because they came from her own hand. Thank you for your comments. ch

Well said! What you are doing [with spiritual legacy] should be done in every church in America. Keep up the good work. js

You are much appreciated by those of us who write and by our kids and grandkids who read what we write. My children and granddaughters keep asking me to write more. I'll try to do better in 2010. Your blog is right on the mark. Keep up the good work. ec

Thanks for sharing your blog. It is so true. We don't write to sell our stories. We write for our kids and grandchildren, and hopefully they are not looking for professional quality. dt

Your February Blog was real good, I have been thinking lately of Mom and wished I had known more about her and her young life. We just didn't talk about those things when we were younger.ss

I agree with your entire February blog, History is a Terrible Thing to Waste. I hope many more will write about their experiences too. Sometimes I am surprised when I remember something that happened in my life. Thanks for giving us the opportunity. vb

As always, you are a wonder. I'm so glad you do this blog! Thanks friend. rm
