A KILLER WRITING TEACHER

HE HELPED ME GET MY IDEAS IN ORDER
I really enjoyed working with Dave as I was creating and revising an album of song lyrics. He helped me get my ideas in order and I ended up writing things I didn’t know I had in me. The guy just cares. It’s an intuitive thing. He just gets you where you’re going!
