Writing Coaching
If you are feeling stuck or unsure of what to do next, I can help. I will read all or part of your writing project and help you see what’s working great and why, and what might not be working so well and give you ideas for revising and developing until you are happy with your project.
My Writing
At eight years old, after a mortifying experience in life and a disappointing experience with fiction, I decided I wanted to write true stories. I learned the term “creative nonfiction” years later. I love writing about seemingly ordinary, everyday things and revealing their magic.
Art Portfolio & Shop
I hand draw pen-and-ink images. Tiny, vibrant illustrations of vegetables and recipes are one of my favorite themes. I turn some drawings into stickers, magnets, and cards. I also hand draw and carve block-print designs that I print in vivid colors on fabric.
“Write your life. No matter how young or old. Even if you feel like you’re not interesting enough. Do it. Believe me you are. Your life is in fact twisted and beautiful and you’ll find that as you peel back the layers, the unexpected side effect is it feels wonderful to be known. Even if it’s just by you.”
