ENDORSEMENTS:
“Crystal Caudill presented “Genres” to our writer’s group in Lexington. At the end of our time together, not only did I have more knowledge about different types of stories I could read, I also felt challenged to try out different types of writing I can try for the Lord.” — Kristy Horine, February 2020
“Crystal Caudill’s ability to communicate is stellar. She presents herself as well prepared and knowledgeable. Whether the audience is comprised of beginning writers, multi-published writers, or a contains both, she has the ability to speak to all levels and bring something fresh to each perspective. I appreciated what she brought at the Kentucky Christian Writers Conference in 2020 and I look forward to the opportunity to learn more from her in the future!” ~ Sara R. Turnquist, KCWC 2020
“Crystal is an excellent teacher! She explains her topics patiently, supporting and clarifying with examples and anecdotes.” -Anonymous, KCWC 2020
“Crystal’s virtual presentation on writing fight scenes was very well-done. Informative, well-organized, and she is a strong teacher.” – Debra E. Marvin, KCWC 2020
“Crystal Caudill’s Plotting 101 presentation is a master class in short hand. She clearly lays out an approachable, comprehensive pattern for authors to follow in any genre. She condensed time-consuming research into a simple linear construction. God bless her!” – Susan Sams Baggott, 2020 ACFW-VA Conference
