"This course was tremendous. I was consistently impressed by Kate's ability to facilitate a meaningful and productive conversation between a group of very different writers, all at different stages in their manuscripts and writing careers. The long-term commitment to the class fostered accountability and a sense of community and mutual support. I found the "accountability buddy" system Kate put in place between class meetings to be nearly as helpful as the classes themselves. Most of all, I enjoyed getting to know my fellow classmates and reading their work."

"I think Kate is an exceptional teacher. I loved the way she paired craft lessons with excellent short stories and the novel Beloved. I enjoyed having accountability buddies, and I really loved having to meet deadlines when I was on the hot seat. I very much depended on and appreciated the personal attention Kate gives each of her students. Class discussions were very well organized, and I wouldn't change a thing."
- Nerissa Nields, 2019 Manuscript Program / Fiction Workshop Group (with Kate Senecal)
"The written and verbal feedback I received from the instructor (Kate) on my manuscript submissions was educational, encouraging and validating. Both Kate and my classmates were supportive of the work done by all students. I think this was due largely to Kate explicitly setting that expectation. Our work received careful and honest feedback delivered in a positive or neutral manner. Class discussions were lively and instructive. I reliably took 2 or 3 pages of notes per class."
