Your Writing Mentor

Areas of Focus:

I work with writers on all aspects of their writing lives, from self care and organisational skills to formatting and marketing their titles. I also provide initial for feedback on full manuscripts, offer services for creating self-published manuscripts and tailored plans from the proposal to the final blurb in your media kit.

Here are a few examples of the areas where I can help as part of a coaching/mentoring programme:

  • Self care routines to boost your creativity and productivity
  • Organisational structures and accountability to keep the momentum
  • Feedback on your work-in-progress
  • Inspiration and motivation
  • Creative blocks and the creative process
  • Prioritisation of projects and time management
  • Business and marketing skills including web and social media
  • Advice on submissions and agents/publishers
  • Confidence in yourself
  • The routes to market
  • Professionalism as a writer
  • How to avoid overwhelm

Most of my clients are serious about their writing work and looking for a coach to support them in an ongoing dialogue about their writing life. I prefer to work with you for a fixed period of time from 3 months to a full year. My aim is to assist you in finding clarity in the way you approach your work. I am here to ensure you reach your writing goals with the most amount of pleasure and ease possible.
