This service includes:

a 20 minute introductory meeting

a written report with developmental feedback

and a Zoom or in-person meeting to allow space for questions and followup

Borrow my brain for an hour to get clarity on your creative nonfiction process. This is a great option for:

- Nonfiction/memoir/personal essayists who want to brainstorm everything from career questions, book concepts, essay ideas, ideas for where to submit their work, etc, but don’t need written feedback.

- Nonfiction/memoir/personal essayists who aren’t sure whether an MFA is an appropriate next step.

- Nonfiction/memoir/personal essayists who generally feel stuck on their work in progress or in their writing life and want help exploring what might get them unstuck.

- Nonfiction/memoir/personal essayists who want to gain clarity around their goals.

- Nonfiction/memoir/personal essayists who need help being directed to resources that can help them meet their goals.
