Story Review & Feedback Program
Thoughtful, encouraging critique for works up to 5,000 words.
Whether you’re shaping a personal essay, a short story, or a piece of creative non-fiction, sometimes an outside perspective is exactly what you need to move forward with clarity and confidence.
This offering is designed for writers who want thoughtful, encouraging, and craft-focused feedback on a work-in-progress. I read your piece closely—paying attention to voice, structure, flow, and emotional resonance—and reflect back what’s working, what’s compelling, and where the piece might deepen or open up further.
What’s included for $249:
A 20-minute zoom call to get to know each other and allow you to introduce your work to me
A full read-through of your fiction, non-fiction, or CNF piece (up to 5,000 words)
Clear, meaningful feedback that highlights strengths and identifies growth areas
“Next step possibilities” to help you shape your revision path
A personalized creative invitation to support your ongoing writing practice
Encouragement rooted in my belief that your stories matter and deserve space
This is not a harsh critique—this is spacious, supportive, and actionable guidance for writers at any stage. You’ll walk away with a deeper understanding of your piece, renewed energy for revision, and a sense of direction for what comes next.
Writing is personal. Your stories, your voice, and your inner world deserve a coach who understands both the craft and the emotional landscape of creating. My approach is rooted in safety, clarity, and compassion—because meaningful writing can only happen when you feel supported, seen, and grounded.
You’ll be guided, not pushed.
I don’t believe in harsh critiques, rigid rules, or productivity-at-all-costs. Instead, I offer thoughtful, strengths-focused guidance that helps you grow without overwhelm.
You get support that meets you where you are.
Whether you’re writing for the first time, returning after a long pause, or deep in a project, I tailor our work to your needs, pace, and goals. Your writing journey is unique—you deserve support that honours that.
You’ll build safety, confidence, and trust in your voice.
As an author, teacher, writing mentor, and speaker, I’ve spent years helping people write from a place of emotional steadiness. Together, we create the conditions where your voice can expand and your creativity can breathe.
Your stories matter—and I treat them that way.
I listen deeply. I notice what’s working. I pay attention to the heart of your writing. And I reflect it back to you with honesty, encouragement, and care.
You won’t be doing it alone.
Writing can feel isolating—but it doesn’t have to. When we work together, you have someone in your corner: cheering you on, helping you navigate stuck places, celebrating your progress, and holding space for your words.
