You Can Write Your Story. I Can Help.
In the quiet before you put pen to paper, you are the only one who knows the music.
"Let me tell my story," you whisper. "Let me fully exist."
You have a vision. But converting it into a book, pages that readers can thumb through, pay for, and finally read—that part can be overwhelming.
I help writers like you bridge the gap between inspiration and a finished manuscript. Whether you need deep structural edits, creative companionship, or a clear path forward, I’m here to help.
Because I believe you can make your vision real.
A Writing Coach for the Differently Wired
I work with writers from all over the world, nearly all of whom feel marginalized by traditional writing advice. And they're brilliant. They are novelists, journalists, scholars, poets – and more. Many secretly struggled with their writing for years – weighed down by expectations that don't work for them. Now they’re learning to work with their unique and beautiful brains.
Why coaching for differently wired writers? Because I didn't understand why my writing process seemed so different until I got serious about understanding my neurodivergence – in my case, autism and ADHD. That journey has given me great compassion for the exceptions to the rule. Writers like you and me.
I'm here to serve the writer you are – not the one you've been told you should be.
Before I became a coach, I was a Certified Ghostwriter (a master's-level credential). That's where I learned to help authors convert that oh-so-slippery inspiration into marketable literary properties.
Even before that, I had years of experience as a freelancer and fiction writer, including a prestigious mentorship through AWP and a grant from the Ryan Joseph Letcher Fund at StoryStudio Chicago. My paid projects included blog posts, a superhero comic, and over 120 short stories for advanced English language learners – including one about a kid who finds an octopus at the beach and smuggles it home in a pickle jar.
But after a year as a working book ghostwriter, I discovered that my real passion is empowering other writers to create their best work. Here are some ways I can help.
-
Book Coaching: I work with you chapter by chapter, tailoring my guidance to your unique writing style and creative process
-
The Autistic Writers Empowerment Seminar (autistics only): this fall, embrace your unique creative brilliance, surrounded by a cohort of fellow autistic writers
-
Editorial services: from manuscript reviews to proofreading to full-service ghostwriting, I help prepare your manuscript for publication
-
Creative Companionship (contact me for details): we work together to help you discover your vision and stay true to who you truly are as a writer
If you’re interested, the next step is to set up a free consultation and tell me about your project. I’ll ask you some questions and let you know what I can do. If there’s any reason I can’t help, I probably know someone who can.
