Coaching for Writers
Are you a writer? Maybe not, but you'd like to be.
Have you a talent for writing that you'd like to develop with professional help?
Are you unsure if you can write? Is there a notebook lying around with your ideas? Or an unfinished novel?
Who I coach
I coach writers including complete beginners to writers wanting to brush up their craft, perhaps aiming for publication.
Two clients have had non-fiction books published and another has become a successful freelance writer, writing for The Times.
My experience
This includes over 15 years as a freelance writer and author of two self-help non-fiction books.
I've written features for The Times, Guardian, Telegraph, Independent, numerous website and women's magazines.
My features were often on family, education, and wellbeing.

Coaching
This is where we focus on your motivation, time-management, confidence and what you're aiming for with your writing.
It doesn't always include reading and feedback on your writing.
Coaching and feedback
This combines all coaching support but also ongoing support with your writing, where I read and comment on your writing.
Professional advice and mentoring
This is where I share my knowledge of publishing. It includes where to begin, how to find and choose and agent, and how to prepare your writing for submission to an agent or a publisher. it would usually include reading and feedback on your writing.
How I work
The first step is to give me a call. Fees for writing coaching are based on how much and what type of coaching you need.
Where I'm reading, editing and providing feedback on your writing, it's priced according to word count.
