Writing mentoring
Having landed five international publishing deals in the last five years, I understand both the excitement and the challenges that come with writing so I offer mentoring to get you from idea to publication.
|
How writing mentoring worksEither once a week or once a fortnight for 6 months we will meet for 50 minutes (either in-person or online) to explore ideas and review any writing you've done (up to 4,000 words) since our previous session.
We will work together to find a best-selling idea, create a realistic writing schedule, craft a book proposal that you can submit to literary agents and/or begin writing your book for self-publication. |
Each session will guide you through the process of not only how to write a book but how to become a writer. This includes assignments + worksheets to support you through the book writing process.
