I will be your fantasy and sci fi writing coach for plot, character and prose
About this Gig
Hi, I'm Elina. BA (Hons) English Literature with Creative Writing, University of Leeds. I coach fantasy and science fiction writers through the parts of a book that get stuck.
Bring me any of these:
- A plot that sags in the middle, or an ending you cannot land
- A character everyone calls flat, and you cannot see why
- Worldbuilding that is swallowing the story
- Prose that reads stiff: sentence rhythm, dialogue, point of view, showing versus telling
- Grammar and punctuation you are tired of guessing at
- If you have leaned on AI and your writing stopped sounding like you, I will help you find your own voice again
How it works: pick a package, tell me what you are wrestling with, and send up to 2,000 words of your writing if you would like me to read something first. We talk it through on a call, or entirely in writing if you would rather not be on camera.
No AI. Everything I tell you comes from me.
Fiction only. I do not take on school or university work of any kind.
Topic:
Book & eBook

Industry:

Delivery style preference
Please inform the freelancer of any preferences or concerns regarding the use of AI tools in the completion and/or delivery of your order.
FAQ
Do we have to be on a video call?
No. If you would rather not be on camera, send your questions in writing and I will answer in writing, in the same detail. Voice-only calls are fine too.
What do you need from me beforehand?
A short note on what you are stuck on, and up to 2,000 words of the manuscript if you want me to read something first. The more specific the question, the more useful the session.
Can you read my whole novel?
Not in a session. That is a beta read, and I offer it as a separate gig. Coaching is for the specific problem you keep circling.
My writing does not sound like me any more after using AI. Can you help?
Yes, and it is more fixable than it feels. We look at where your own voice is strongest, work out what got flattened, and I give you concrete habits to write your way back.
Do you coach non-fiction, or school or university work?
No. Fiction only: fantasy, science fiction and YA.
What time zone are you in?
UK time. I can usually fit around European and US East Coast hours. Message me and we will find a slot that works.
