I help you craft the words within you so that your voice is heard and your story is told.
The Basics:
I assist writers in the creative writing process. My services include:
- Outlining: Whether you’re writing a fiction or nonfiction book I can help you create a step-by-step outline for your work.
- Setting Writing Goals: If you’re struggling with writer’s block or are having trouble maintaining the self-discipline necessary to produce consistent pages, the coaching sessions can help keep you on track by setting achievable goals.
- Finding Your Voice: Writing your story can be very personal. As your coach, I will help you sift through any mental or emotional blocks that inhibit your story from being told as you wish it to be heard.
- Polishing: I will offer writing advice that can help you turn a good book into a great book by offering cuts, narrative advice, or proofreading services so that your story comes shining through.
You can explore my own writing samples through my blog or check out a preview of my travel memoir, Soul Shaping Tails.
