've worked with Shannon several times as I needed guidance on songwriting structure and development. She is gifted and has been invaluable in allowing me to experience tremendous improvements in my songs. While everyone has opinions about how a song should be structured, Shannon bases her feedback on research, facts and careful analysis. She understands the elements that make a song stand out. This is rare and a testament to the time and effort Shannon has put into her craft. 

In all honesty, I've never met anyone else with the depth of knowledge she has about music, song structure and listener psychology. If you want to improve your songwriting, are willing to listen to feedback then to do the required work, she can truly help. I am absolutely blessed to work with her. It continues to be a rewarding experience.

At ENTENTE, we really enjoy working with Shannon as an addition to our positioning work for client companies. She brings a unique combination of PhD-level understanding of story structure and neuropsychology, and was able to apply that lens in very specific ways to unique challenges we work through. She brings thoughtful ideas and fresh approaches to projects, is wonderfully collaborative, and adds perspectives that are genuinely valuable.

I have learned so much at the writing class at Foxtale Book Shoppe! Our teacher, Shannon, has stretched me as a writer. I love how she makes me write outside my comfort zones and outside my own lines and constraints. Thank you, Shannon for making me better, and I love your energy, too!
