Working with Janet has been a pleasure and a treat. Her collaboration on my project has been extremely helpful and such a fun creative experience. She is witty, hardworking and an outside of the box thinker. She pushed me to write more about my experiences and feelings and challenged me to create more passionate dialogue. I am so grateful for her input to my project.​

Janet has assisted as dramaturg with several projects. My background is as a non-fiction book writer and Janet skilfully guided me through the process of adapting and transferring the written word to the spoken and performed word - the importance of editing, viewpoint, pace, audience expectations, the limitations and opportunities of staging, and how to draw out the emotion of the piece.

She approached our project with a keen understanding of both artistic and business aspects, offering invaluable perspectives from the viewpoint of audiences and investors alike. Through her guidance, often infused with tough love, our vision evolved from mere concept to a fully-realized show.

Janet was extremely helpful to me when I started writing my memoir. She provided guidance to focus the narrative, helping me get beyond a mere recounting of events.  Janet helped sharpen my sentences toward something readers would actually want to read. As someone at the start of a writing journey this was invaluable! Janet also provided great reading recommendations,  for which I am extremely grateful.
