Coaching

Most of us believe that writing is simply a matter of sitting down at the pad or the keyboard and pouring out ideas through our fingers. In reality, writing is hard work, requiring the same attention to craft and outcome as athletes give to their skills. No one, not even highly motivated professional writers, turn out perfect prose on their first try.

The writing process is messy, and the mess can often be discouraging. Sometimes, what you need as a writer is encouragement and guidance to accomplish your goal. That's when a good writing coach becomes essential to your success.

As a coach, I can work with you to help keep your enthusiasm and momentum alive in many ways:

  • Creating a reasonable plan of action
  • Setting manageable deadlines
  • Prescribing techniques to generate ideas
  • Managing your time
  • Staying on schedule
  • Dealing with writer's block
  • Reviewing, editing, and proofreading drafts​
  • Reviewing, editing, and proofreading drafts
