Know you need writing help but don't have a novel you're working on right now? Want to learn some tips and tricks without paying for a whole developmental edit? That's where my writing coaching service comes in. This service is geared towards career writers who want to get better between projects and beginner writers who need a stronger sense of story.


I offer Q&As for writers who are trying to understand the industry, one-on-one discussions of your favorite novels or short stories, and pre-designed lessons based on some of the most common issues I see in writing today.


I don't teach using Save the Cat or any other handbook you can buy on Amazon; all examples in my lessons are based in real, published books, from classics to contemporary awardees. For the upper levels of lessons, I provide reading in advance of the lesson and a few exercises you can do on your own to practice what we've learned.


Reach out to me! I've worked with writers of all different age groups and skill levels, and I'm happy to create a recurring lesson schedule that gets your writing where you want it to be. Don't be shy!
