Alyssa Morin, lifestyle editor & beauty journalist
“I wouldn’t have finished my book proposal without L’Oreal’s guidance, transparency, and spirited pep talks. Through her writing workshops and book proposal coaching, she offered in-depth insight into the process that you won’t find in a Google search.
In addition, the tips, tools, and resources she provided not only made me feel comfortable tackling something as daunting as a book proposal, but confident enough to send it out to agents once it was completed. Of course, L'Oreal’s bubbly personality and passion for helping others creates such an inviting space that you leave her workshops feeling educated and empowered. I can’t recommend booking a session with her enough!”
