Offerings
Whether you're an emerging writer working on your first book or an established author starting a new project, I provide the support, accountability, and expertise you need to bring your vision to life.
My personalized approach means we'll craft a relationship that serves your unique needs, timeline, and goals for your project. No matter what kind of project, I always provide include both creative support, in-depth editing, and practical, strategic guidance for navigating the publishing landscape.
Why work with me?
Make Meaningful Progress
I'll help you bridge the gap between your vision and a professional finished product–whether that’s a book proposal, draft of a novel, or new book concept. One step a time, you’ve got this.
Navigate Publishing with Confidence
Skip the years of trial and error that many writers endure. You'll learn about the industry, understand the right process to publish your project (whether that’s traditional publishing, hybrid, or self-publishing) and avoid common pitfalls that can delay or derail your project.
Develop Your Authentic Voice
Discover and refine your unique writing voice through personalized feedback—we’ll go line by line through your writing so you understand how to write better, not just integrate feedback.
Break Through Creative Blocks
Every writer struggles with that paralyzing inner critic, imposter syndrome, and anxiety—you'll develop practical tools to overcome resistance and establish a sustainable writing practice that aligns with your life.
Find More Ease & Joy In Your Writing
If you’ve been thinking of writing as “type two fun” (not fun while you’re doing it, but fun afterwards), we’ll work together to bring more ease, genuine excitement, and joy into your writing practice so you can be in this for the long-haul.
Build Momentum Through Accountability
Transform your dream of "someday writing a book" into consistent progress with caring accountability that keeps you on track without adding stress or pressure.

How we’ll work together
Our work together is always customized for where you are in your writing journey and what you need most. Here's what you can generally expect:
Initial Assessment
We'll start with a thorough discussion of your project, goals, experience, and timeline to create a personalized plan so you know where you’re at and where you’re going.
Regular Sessions
Our twice-monthly calls combine mentorship, feedback, strategy, and accountability. We'll address both the craft of writing and the emotional journey of creating.
Ongoing Support
Between sessions, I'm available via email, text and voice memos to answer questions, provide encouragement, and keep your momentum going. People love this!
Flexible Feedback
Submit your writing before our calls for live discussion and/or receive detailed asynchronous feedback—whatever works best for your process.
Publishing Guidance
As your project develops, we'll discuss publication options and strategies, helping you make informed decisions about your path forward.
