You want to write. You haven't published before, but you have a story, a personal essay, or a memoir in mind. You've taken a couple of classes, but now you're staring at the computer screen or a blank page in your notebook, and you're face to face with the real work of writing.
Writing demands solitude and discipline, but sometimes, you need a little extra nudge, some support, and some supportive, but instructional feedback. It's hard to stay inspired when you're working on your own. It's difficult to gauge a reader's experience of your writing. You're close to what you've written, and seeing it anew, knowing what's strong or what needs a bit of pruning, enhancing, or rewriting is tough to do alone.
That's where a writing coach can help. If you're ready to seriously try your hand at writing personal essays, life stories, or a longer memoir, perhaps you need the support and advice of an objective, yet supportive, professional. As a writing coach, I will help you set goals, meet deadlines, and offer encouragement and detailed feedback to support your writing goals and sharpen your craft.
I don't work with a formula. Each coaching relationship is individualized--based on your unique goals and needs. My services include:
. Ongoing coaching re: writing practice, goal setting, & meeting deadlines on a monthly fee basis . Reading of work-in-progress, critique and feedback on a price per page basis . One to one consultation, in person or by telephone, on a per hour basis
For more information, including fees and process, or to discuss your goals & needs, contact me.
