*If you don't see a time listed that works for your schedule, please message me and I'll try to work something out! Do you have a young aspiring writer who would like some 1-on-1 help with their current creative writing pieces? I'm here to help! Each time we meet, I will provide feedback on their latest additions. I'll show them how they can, - Create compelling, multifaceted characters - Build vivid, well-thought-out worlds - Find ways to add movement so readers can see their characters in action - Make their dialogue dynamic and believable - Include imagery in a way that shows the story, not simply tell it - Incorporate figurative language - Fashion a structure to the plot that helps build anticipation - Develop their voice and make sure it is consistent throughout the piece - And so much more! I will also help with the smaller picture aspects such as making their writing more concise, creating a strong rhythm, and basic grammar and mechanical issues. Additionally, we can use the time to only discuss their pieces, and/or I can also give them focused time to write too if they need it. In the end, I'm here to help however they need me! They should just have something prepared that we can look at and discuss together during our session.
