I will give personalized writing lessons to improve your craft

Want to become a better writer but don't know what to work on next?

I'm a professional writer, editor, and publishing industry veteran with 16 years of experience, and I'll help you improve your writing through personalized, practical lessons built around your work, your goals, and the areas where you need the most help.

We'll work with your actual writing to identify what's working, what isn't, and what you can do to make your writing stronger.

Lessons can cover:

• Character development
• Dialogue
• Description and setting
• Show vs. tell
• Pacing
• Plot and structure
• Point of view
• Voice and style
• Scene construction
• Openings and endings
• Writing compelling prose
• Revision and self-editing
• Avoiding common writing problems
• Finishing abandoned drafts
• Developing your own writing process

And more!

You don't need to have a finished manuscript, either. Bring me a chapter, a scene, a troublesome paragraph, or simply a writing problem you're struggling with.

Whether you're writing your first story or trying to take your existing craft to the next level, let's work on the writing you actually want to write.
