She has produced works in a wide range of genres but her first love is story. Her understanding of narrative strategy and her keen insight into human character draws her readers effortlessly into a narrative experience.
Valerie’s writing has appeared in peer-reviewed academic journals, as columns in weekly newspapers, magazines and in her blogs (which are read in 81 countries). Her work has been broadcast on CBC radio and featured in anthologies including, “Chicken Soup for the Soul.”
She has also published books about volunteering, leadership and about story building for Toastmasters International members.
Her working life encompasses teaching in England (where she was born and educated) and in Canada. She has worked with developmentally challenged people and with older ESL students.
She was a finalist in the contests of the 2007, 2009, 2010 Surrey International Writers Conference and winner of the Story Dynamics ‘Personal Story’ award in 2006.
This book about speech evaluation comes from eight years experience as a sought-after evaluator and as winner of her Division evaluation contest.visualizza meno
