“I recommend Julienne without reservation and will continue to do so until or unless she gets too busy for me and then I’ll become proprietary.” -Jim Curtan, Author & Teacher

An Archetypal Endorsement

Artist: I have wanted a website for several years and never got around to it. I mentioned it to Julienne at lunch a year or so ago. She said, “Oh, I design those.” A month later my website was up and running. It’s simple to navigate and aesthetically beautiful, both of which I’ve been told by several people.

Coach (Babysitter): Julienne continually inspires, prods and encourages me to make real the projects I’ve dreamt about doing but never got done, things like a website, a blog, a newsletter and online classes.

Collaborator (Editor/Producer): Julienne has an uncanny knack for uncluttering and clarifying what I want to say without changing what I want to say. She is so skilled and intuitive that I regard her more as a partner in my projects than an editor.

Confessor: Julienne listens and listens and listens. She’s absolutely trustworthy and her penances are light.

Creative EMT: Julienne is seemingly always on call—when I’m stuck, when my creative juices run dry, when I need a transfusion.

Engineer: Anyone who knows me knows that my technological skills are pretty much limited to turning my computer on and off. Transfer files? Change a jpeg to a pdf? You’ve got to be kidding me. Julienne talks me down and walks me through such things patiently and repeatedly in language that a Luddite can understand.

Mid-Wife: She tells me when to breathe, when to push, and when it’s time to stop holding back and give birth.

Promoter: Julienne seems to come up with at least an idea a day for getting my work out and into circulation. She’s tireless.

Wild Child: This is the best part. She’s really fun to hang with even when the work is hard and frustrating. She thinks outside the box.

I recommend her without reservation and will continue to do so until or unless she gets too busy for me and then I’ll become proprietary.
