Feeling fearful? Overflowing with brilliant ideas? Needing structure? Pressed for time?
As a longtime teacher, I have an abiding interest not just in what people make out of words, but in how they do it. I help people meet that deadline, finish that story, write that book, or merely produce that initial word.
How? In the words of Helen Keller: “Walking with a friend in the dark is better than walking alone in the light.” A customized guide, companion, consort, co-conspirator, confidante, and fellow traveler in your endeavors with words, my approaches to coaching are as diverse as each person and each project. Memoir? Fiction? Public speaking? Spoken-word performances? Presentations? Scholarly projects?
I can help you get it done.
