Accompanying others through projects they are passionate about is one of the things I am passionate about. Sometimes we just need someone to walk with us. I've been there. If that's you, I'd like to invite you to consider allowing me to accompany you on your journey.​
My favorite kinds of stories are filled with fantasy, adventure, mystery, humor, and romance. If your story includes any of these elements, we might be a good fit! I do not read hard sci-fi, horror, grimdark, or erotica, and would not be a good fit for those stories.

What I Offer

Book Coaching 
Accompaniment through regular meetings where we will dig deep into your story, characters, or other areas where you desire help or a sounding board, and find what makes your story shine. This may or may not include reading any of your actual text, or may be bundled with editing options.

Rates: 
  • $70 for an hour video call
  • $130 for an hour + editing up to 5,000 words
  • $190 for an hour + editing up to 10,000 words
  • Not sure if your word count fits? Let's chat!
Story-Storming 
Stuck on something? Story-storming is a one-shot brainstorming session during which we dive into specific areas where you want some extra help, and get the juices flowing! 

Rates: 
  • $60 for 45 min without reading your manuscript
  • $90 for 45 min + reading up to 5,000 words

Story-storming can be used multiple times at your discretion. If you are unsure whether or not coaching or editing is for you, Story-storming is a great way to get your feet wet and start to get the help you need without a larger commitment.
Developmental Editing
The "big picture" step of editing that takes a broad look at structure, plot, character, pacing, and other elements of craft to ensure your story is as engaging and coherent as it can be. Includes my type-written notes about what is working well and what specific areas need more attention, as well as a 40 minute video call to discuss the feedback. Additional calls follow coaching or Story-storming rates.
