- Overwhelmed by the writing or revision process?
- Facing questions you can’t find answers to on your own? Or find too many disparate answers?
- Are you stuck in your story and have a muddy middle?
- Do you feel like you’re chasing your tail instead of making solid revisions to your story?
I can help. Studying the craft of writing fiction is a passion of mine, and I love problem solving. I’ve been working with writers and authors for over a decade to polish their stories.
This story you’re creating is wholly yours,
and I want to help you tell it.
My method is to ask questions to unearth what’s not yet on the page. To offer a safe space to discuss story elements without undue criticism. And to give practical steps, empowering you to move forward with confidence in your characters and story.
With regular deadlines each month, I’ll be invested in you reaching your goal. The accountability and support offered goes farther than just a simple edit.
Together we’ll work through specific questions you have about your story, about writing, about the best way to present the situations your characters face on the page and how to make them interesting and compelling for your ideal reader.

Tell your story well
Writing isn’t only about putting the words on the page. It’s about doing so well—creating a story that draws the reader in and keeps them engaged all the way through. Coaching through the writing process will help you think through the various levels of a story in that first draft.
Likewise, revision can be a daunting task. Coaching through revision can help minimize the stress and help you focus on what’s important so you don’t lose your mind or lose the drive to finish with a beautifully polished story.
