writing coaching/teaching

Together, we can find the story in anything.

With more than a decade of professional experience that includes TV writing credits, film development, produced podcast scripts, and over 1,500 published articles online, I've spent years figuring out how to take an idea, find the heart of it, and turn it into a quality story.

And I want to help you do the same.

Whether you're developing a screenplay, working on an essay, or staring at a blank page, sometimes the best thing you can have is another writer in the room. I help writers hone their ideas, work through roadblocks, and feel more confident on the page — all while celebrating the joy in the art of collaboration and creative discovery.

Let's write together

how do you want to work together?

  • Sometimes you just need another writer in the room. Bring me an idea, a draft, a creative roadblock, or a question you're wrestling with, and we'll spend an hour talking it through, brainstorming possibilities, and figuring out your next steps.

    $100

  • Ready for a deeper dive? Send me your work ahead of time, and we'll spend 90 minutes looking at what's working, what's not, and where your project can go next. We'll dig into story, structure, character, voice, or whatever your project needs most—and you'll leave with clear, actionable next steps.

    Includes advance review of up to 30 pages of writing or project materials, followed by a 90-minute consultation.

    This can include:

    • Screenplays & scripts

    • Essays & articles

    • Fiction

    • Pitches & treatments

    • Outlines or story documents

    • Other narrative or creative writing

    Have something that doesn't fit neatly into these categories? Just reach out and we can figure out what makes sense.

    $175

    For longer projects, additional material can be added in 30-page increments for $50.

  • Writing is a lot easier when you don't have to do it alone. Over four sessions, we'll work together to develop your ideas, get through creative roadblocks, and keep your project moving. We'll figure out what you need as you go—and I'll be in your corner along the way.
