Writing Coach

It’s such a confidence trick, writing a novel. The main person you have to trick into confidence is yourself. This is hard to do alone.

Let me help

You want to write your memoir or novel and have been staring at a blank page, or you’ve written a few chapters but lost your oomph or story line along the way.

I want to coach/doula your dream into form.

How:

• If you’re just getting started, together we’ll map out a writing schedule and approach to flow your words onto the page.
• We’ll collaborate on a book outline if desired.
• You will write and share your pages with me.
• I will guide the process to keep you on track with your goals and help to develop a clear, compelling premise or plot.
• I will encourage your authentic voice (tone & style).
• I will shine a light on areas where you need to dig deeper as well as to provide emotional support for what is often considered a lonely road.

How much:

$75 for half hour quick read & review or pep talk as needed

$150 for one hour read and review

$750 for 6 hours either in half hour or hour sessions within a six month time frame.
