We’ll evaluate the first 6,000 words (25 pages, 12pt font, double spaced) of your novel or memoir, and help you make sure your story starts in the right place, establishes subject and character, conflict, and action, and won’t let a reader put it down.

Flexible, expert advice when you need it. Book hourly support across a range of topics—from planning to problem-solving. This focused consultation will help clarify your goals, map out next steps, and identify opportunities for growth.

For writers who appreciate structure but would prefer to work one-on-one. We’ll give you the scaffolding to ensure your book’s success: deadlines, encouragement, and actionable feedback. Coaching is flexible and can be tailored to suit the writer’s needs, but our Six-Month Coaching option ($3,000) includes monthly feedback on 20-40 pages, with regular accountability and problem solving meetings.
