Coaching & Mentoring
Whether applying to MFA programs, querying agents, submitting short stories, or struggling to finish anything, I will meet with you to create a schedule, foster accountability, give feedback, and provide a concrete path forward for both you and your writing.
The core of coaching and mentoring are one-on-one meetings, which vary based on what you need. There are many different walls that writers hit—writers' block, persistent rejection, financial worry, imposter syndrome—all of which impede creativity, the capacity for risk, and the joy of expression. I will listen to whatever is going on, and work with you on a concrete plan to get your writing thriving again.
​
Often, writers working on longer projects will come up with a schedule of meetings with me, and commit to submitting new work by a series of deadlines. We will discuss what's coming through this new work at each meeting, and adjust their deadlines to push them to get a full draft completed.
Rates
My rate for coaching & mentoring is $90/hour, which includes any reading time, as well as the time it takes to meet.
