So lovely to see you back. Please would you consider putting written text, running alongside your pictorial (as you have done on some previous tutorials) to assist us with hearing problems? Many thanks.
I wrote to you yesterday, regarding my lessons. I found one that I can get into, however I am sure that I paid for this one as well. I explained that my husband had been contacting you at the time because I had been having trouble with your web site, so the lesson might have been bought on his email address. I was hoping you would have sorted this or at least acknowledged my email. I need to use this program. I also paid for some other lessons which I cannot remember, I cannot remember which ones they were. Kindly sort this out asap as I need to make the girl and turn her into a boy. This was bought before the pandemic. Thank you. If it helps I think I bought it when it was on half price. The lessons periodically would be half price. Kindly let me know.
Hi Stella, I will forward your message to my son, he can help you much quicker than I. Thanks for your patience.
Hi Stella, I believe I responded to you via email. Basically, you purchased some tutorials at YenersWay.tv and some here. I have synced both sites so you should have access to all purchased tutorials on both sites (YenersWay.com and YenersWay.tv). If you need more assistance, please email help@yenersway.com. Thanks
Just fantastic! I’m making a ballerina shortly and you have just given me many helpful ideas. Thank you.
