The Highlights Foundation shifted my writing from dream to reality….I finally understood the business and how to stand out in a crowded market. I’ve also benefited immeasurably from the Highlights Foundation’s online offerings. My craft has blossomed along with my confidence, and I’ve met incredible writers and friends.
