Editing, Book coaching & Free advice

You finally have an hour to spare, so you sit down at your desk to write, but…

  • You have so many ideas that you don’t know where to start.

  • You’ve written something, but is it a finished piece?

  • You can’t figure out how to punctuate dialogue.

  • You feel ready to share your writing, but don’t know where to send it.

  • You just want someone to tell you if you’re doing this right.

Sound familiar? I know, because I’ve been there, too.

As a writer, editor, and book coach, I have a decade of experience helping writers find their authentic voice and finish their projects. From college workshops to writing intensives, I’ve had my work critiqued in inspiring and crushing ways, and how to give useful feedback that will help you keep writing.

Whenever you’re just getting started, finally writing that memoir, or revising your novel, I’m here to help you edit, improve, and find your writing community.
