Review
The precepts of Freefall Writing provide a foundational practice for any writer, but I’m convinced that the way Barbara talks about writing is an even greater source of learning. — Geoff Mead, PhD, Visiting Fellow, Saïd Business School, University of Oxford, UK
...at each stage of my Freefall learning I have unfailingly received what I needed—I have been shown which sentences engaged the reader, and why some did not; I have had my intentions understood and enjoyed, and I have been given new ways of taking the writing further that were within my grasp. — Judith Hemming, Constellations Therapist, UK
Barbara revealed that writing really involves both the act of putting forth the words, and the act receiving of them. How I receive other people’s writing, how I ruminate and respond, requires the same faculties and skills that I require as a writer. — Kaye Gersch, PhD, Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist, Australia
For the last two years, Barbara’s fortnightly feedback on my writing has dropped like a jewel into my inbox...there is an impatience to each of those jewels in my inbox, an urgent and stirring reminder to tap into, trust, and write from the raw energy of nascent insight—one lying beyond surface memory or fantasy that I never thought I would find. — Rebecca Ellis, UK
Barbara Turner-Vesselago showed me a sort of structureless structure that allowed an expansion of what I’d been doing in my fishing essays. Suspend judgment, trust the process and, most importantly, keep writing. — Tom Ohaus, US
My writing group, following Barbara Turner-Vesselago’s discoveries, outlined in How to Talk About Writing, ‘divine’ together—both in our writing and in the talk that follows...Feedback from the group merges with the writing. We colour in the moments when each person’s words filled our beings, enjoy story specific dialogue and see the wisdom of not tinkering. Smiles spontaneously erupt, and ‘aha’ gasps fill the room as insights ignite and are absorbed. — Georgina Mavor, Psychologist, Australia

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to AHA-BUCH GmbH, Einbeck, Germany, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
