If writing feels more difficult than it should...
COACHING & WORKSHOPS
If your words do not feel quite right on the page, you are not alone. Doubt and second-guessing are a natural part of the process, but they don't have to stop you. Many people want to write but feel blocked, uncertain, or afraid of getting it “wrong.” Experience has shown me that writing can feel natural with the right support.
If you are just beginning, blocked, or returning after years away, I can help you feel at ease and confident on the page. For 30 years, I've worked with adults and teens who may not yet feel ready or “good enough” but still want to write. My approach will help you build trust in your voice and appreciate the process as much as
the result.

Private Coaching
Writing can be a place to build confidence, find your voice, and surprise yourself. You don't need to wait until you "feel ready."
My one-on-one coaching sessions are built around your pace and goals. I will share simple tools to make the page feel less intimidating and give gentle encouragement to keep writing. We might try new prompts, look at drafts, or just make space for the words to arrive without pressure. We can meet online or you can send work for feedback.
60–90 minute sessions for any setting, from senior centers to
country clubs. Popular workshops are "A Page of Your Own" and "The Writing Salon." Each workshop includes:
-
Inspiring examples
-
Playful, purposeful prompts
-
Time to create and share
Workshops for Groups

“A Page of Your Own” is my signature poetry experience, created especially for senior centers and other community groups. This
90 minute workshop gives participants a welcoming space to explore memories, creativity, and self-expression through poetry. Attendees will leave with a sense of connection and a powerful reminder that their voice matters and their stories are worth telling. This workshop is perfect for groups looking to offer an inspiring, creativity-boosting activity. In-person or online. 90-min workshop, flat rate $200, up to 16 people, includes all materials.

"The Writing Salon" is a guided, small-group experience designed to feel less like a class and more like a social gathering with a creative edge. Participants try their hand at writing through short prompts and examples, and leave with words they can be proud of. No preparation, skill, or public reading is required. It is a good fit for groups who want something exclusive, memorable, and engaging. In-person. 90-min workshop, flat rate $350, up to 16 people, includes all materials.
Bring an uplifting experience to your community.
No prior writing experience is needed.
