Ways We Can Work Together
Writing is shaped, not fixed. It takes patience, attention, and care for the voice already on the page. Whether you’re beginning a draft or sharpening existing pages, you don’t have to do it alone. The work is collaborative and grounded in respect for both the writing and the writer.
1:1 Coaching for Writers
Edit calmly. Think clearly. Keep your voice.
$100
Coaching is for writers who need conversation, direction, or momentum rather than markup. These sessions are collaborative and flexible. We might talk through a stuck draft, map a revision plan, clarify goals, or work through questions about process and voice. Some writers come once. Others return at different stages of a project. This is especially helpful if you feel close to the work and need an outside eye to help you see it clearly again.
Includes:
- A 60-minute focused craft conversation
- Optional review of up to 1,000 words beforehand
- Clear revision direction and strategic next steps
- A short written summary to guide your work after our call
