Where Concept Meets Craft

Get a Writing Assessment

Wish you had feedback from editors who reject your work?

Is your writing not quite of literary quality?

Can't identify what's missing?

I'll assess your writing for:

Strengths and weaknesses
Use of the technical and literary elements of creative writing
Opportunities to develop or enhance your craft

The end result will be a professional report that outlines the findings, provides direction toward additional study or inspirational authors/books if needed, and suggests goals as your next steps in your practice toward improving your craft.

Ongoing Feedback

Get professional editorial feedback for your work on a regular basis. That includes anything from a re-worked scene, an assignment, a short story, or an entire manuscript.

Learn the Basic Fundamentals of Creative Writing

I'll teach you the building blocks of creative writing using a plan modeled after the form & technique classes taught in universities today using assignments, practice exercises, and textbook study to guide you at your own pace.

How it works

Getting started is easy.

Shoot me an email and let me know the type of writing you do.

Together, we'll discuss what you're looking for and identify a coaching plan that meets your needs.

I charge an hourly rate and bill on a regular schedule.

Still not sure?

We'll work together at your pace.

Here are some of the benefits of having a coach. I help writers:

Learn to writer better fiction, memoir, or personal essays
Work with weaknesses in their writing
Practice with exercises and assignments
Revise with professional feedback and direction
Gain inspiration from craft textbooks and other works
Learn to avoid amateur mistakes
Set goals toward literary publication
Stay focused on a specific project (book, memoir, short story)

By being your coach, I'm also your editor, so you don't have to search for one.
