Jane Bissell Writing
What's on the Blog?
Standing up for the Arts.
I just watched a short video of Lynda Topp speaking at the Aotearoa Music Awards earlier this week. The whole country is mourning the loss of her twin sister Jools, so many memories and tributes shared, but never is the grief more profoundly seen and heard than in the voice and on the face of Lynda as she stood on the stage to address the crowd, flanked and supported, as she was, by fellow performers.

From personal experience...
... I know that writing can heal.
In 2001, I was told I had breast cancer.
I kept a daily journal while going through it.
The daily practice of showing up to journal helped me cope and get through, as did the writing of my two books.
Since then, as Jane Bissell Writing New Zealand, I have used my experience of trauma, challenge, recovery and achievement, to support others in the writing of their own life journeys.
I can help you write.
My personal life experiences, and proven ability to help others write and publish their stories, makes me an effective, collaborative, and trustworthy partner for your writing project.
