I’m offering a one time only sale on my full editing suite.

As you know, I’m actually retiring from one on one editing. But I will reopen just for now to anyone who needs to book me in the new year or if you book the mentorship and it goes into the new year. That’s totally fine.

Okay my fellow writers, but is anyone feeling weirdly rebellious right now? Like yeah the world is crazy but hell or high water, you’re STILL gonna chase your dreams and write? 🖐️

Writer parents!

I'm doing some research, and I'd love to talk to you about your experience as a busy writer with children. We can chat here, in DMs, or on the phone--whatever works for you! It'll only take a couple of minutes; I know how busy you are 😊

Thank you!
