Writing “Voice” Coach
You’re ready to write your memoir or story but you just need some help to find the right voice. Been there and done that! You have to be willing to dump out a lot of dirt if you’re going to pan for gold. We’ll meet with you in person or on the phone if you’re long distance, then we’ll review the initial draft of your first chapter, the beginning of the beginning. We’ll give you honest and constructive feedback until we both feel you are ready to write the entire book. Very exciting!
