Do you have burning questions about writing, publishing, or marketing, or need help with creativity and brainstorming, motivation, productivity, self-confidence, and smashing through procrastination? Or perhaps you’d like help creating a strategy and plan for your writing and publishing journey from someone who’s travelled the same path.

I’ve been there, and know how valuable it is to have someone in the industry to help you out and provide tailored advice or feedback… sometimes it can mean the difference between getting published or not, finding an agent or not, having a successful book or not, and even having a fulfilling and satisfying creative career or not.

I get a lot of messages and requests to read or critique manuscripts, chapters, synopses, provide feedback on story ideas, have phone calls, coffee dates, or provide industry information and publishing advice. I love to help other writers, write articles and blog posts, and give tips whenever I can, but due to my time restraints, multiple deadlines, and responsibilities I’m unable to respond to all requests. So I’ve created time in my schedule for limited bookings to help writers in a more professional, productive, and beneficial way…. I’m here as a coach to support you and help boost your writing mojo, your career, and achieve your goals!

…Why work with me?

In my eight years of writing both fiction in multiple genres and non-fiction, and almost five years of being published, I’ve had seventeen books traditionally published with three publishers in a combination of ebook, print, and audio, signed with a literary agent in the USA, been nominated for awards, attended numerous conferences and workshops to further my knowledge, and worked with a variety of industry professionals on my own work. I’m also an experienced competition judge volunteering with RWA (Romance Writers of Australia).

In addition I work as an intuitive self-empowerment coach to help people break through blocks and live their best life, I have counselling training, experience working one-on-one with people from my past career in the health industry, and am also an award-winning marketer.

With this knowledge and experience I aim to provide practical and effective advice, feedback, and guidance, delivered in a compassionate and inspiring way, to help writers achieve their goals and become more empowered and confident in their writing life.
