Ready to make your words count?

Whatever the project, I can help you take your story skills up a level and help you finish what you're longing to start. Here's how we can work together:

  • Story Chat: Your ideas meet my expertise for 1 full hour of focus. Great for brainstorming, fixing scenes, and pin-pointing problems. Bring your outline, your scene, your chapter.

  • Beginners start here!

  • Story Diagnostic: FULL READ of your work in progress by an expert editor. Includes an analysis to identify your Core Scenes and fix what's missing in your outline.

  • Developmental Coaching: For authors, a multi-week commitment to flesh out your project, and get the right words on the page.

  • "Small Group" Workshops: Does your critique group need an experienced workshop leader to refresh the feedback? All workshops are tailored to your group goals and needs.
