Our writing coaches offer one-on-one private sessions for beginning through advanced writers. Instruction consists of tailor-made reading assignments and writing assignments, monthly review of work, and advice on next steps toward publication. All coaches are published authors themselves, and rates vary. Please inquire for details and availability.
FOR FICTION, MEMOIRS, & GENERAL NONFICTION
Monthly Coaching (Standard Level)
You will submit up to 12,000 words per month (either 12,000 words once a month or 6,000 words every two weeks). Work can be a combination of new or revised work based on the feedback from the previous deadline. For each submission, your coach will provide feedback in the margins of your draft, with the goal of shaping and strengthening the work for publication.
Monthly Coaching (Light Level)
You will submit up to 6,000 words/month (either 6,000 words once a month or up to 3,000 words every two weeks). Work can be a combination of new or revised work based on the feedback from the previous deadline. For each submission, your coach will provide feedback in the margins of your draft, with the goal of shaping and strengthening the work for publication.
Hourly Coaching (Flexible)
This coaching arrangement is ideal for writers who don't want to commit to submitting a fixed number of pages per month. You purchase a block of hours (minimum block: 10 hours) to use with your coach. You may make use of your coach’s time during those hours however you prefer, e.g. sending pages to be marked up with comments, talking on the phone, meeting to review work, requesting feedback on a query letter, creating a targeted list of literary agents, etc. Your coach is responsible for updating you about time remaining on your block. Hours may be rolled over from month to month but expire one year after purchase date.
