Writing Coach and Mentor
Nurturing your voice. Honoring your story.
Every writer has a story to tell—and my job is to help you tell yours with clarity, confidence, and heart. Whether you are just beginning your writing journey or polishing your tenth manuscript, I offer personalized, compassionate support tailored to your goals, style, and stage in the process.
I work closely with writers of all backgrounds—first-time authors finding their rhythm and voice, and seasoned ones storytellers deepening their craft. My approach is hands-on but gentle—honest without being harsh, encouraging without being vague. I combine big-picture vision with concrete, practical feedback that keeps your creativity alive while guiding your project forward.
You don't have to wait until you've finished a draft to reach out. In fact, some of the most powerful progress happens early on—with a steady hand to help shape your ideas, navigate your plot, and keep you grounded in your purpose. With years of experience teaching fiction and mentoring writers, I will help you find your voice, build momentum, and focus on the story you are meant to write.
On my blog, The Writing Itch, I share my insights on the writing craft and editing.
More than anything, I understand the vulnerability that writing requires. That is why I do more than mark up pages—I walk beside you. I listen, I support, I cheer you on. I challenge you with kindness. And I never settle for “good enough.” I help you dig deeper and reach for your very best, without losing your voice along the way.
