        Writing Practice Success Strategies Workbook

        One of the ‘easiest’ ways to make sure you’ll get the book done is to find regular time to, you know, WRITE the book. But that’s often easier said than done, right? In this workbook, I give you a bunch of strategies, tips, and tools to get your butt in the chair - and then do it again, and again, and again, until you are done and ready to share your book with the world.


        Project Management for Writers Course

        When you’re ready to implement everything we covered in the presentation, the Project Management for Writers course gives you all the tools you need and video lessons that walk you through step-by-step.

        Voice, Tone, and Setting Workbook

        Chockfull of exercises to get you thinking about these often abstract and opaque issues of craft! Explore how to develop a unique and memorable character voice, identify and deploy a clear and consistent tone, and craft an immersive setting for your narrative. Whether you’re focusing on a specific project or simply want to do a deep dive on any or all of these aspects of writing, this workbook can help you!


        Interested in coaching?

        My coaching practice focuses on getting novelists across the finish line with a polished, pitch- or publish-ready manuscript. From deep dive novel-planning intensive, to accountability for drafting, to manuscript evaluation and revision coaching, I can help you craft a novel you’ll be psyched to bring to the world.
