Class Experience

Have you always wanted to write a novel, but you don’t know where to begin? Or have you started multiple stories, but you end up getting stuck and not finishing them?

I am a professional ghostwriter and I have written over forty full-length books! I can teach you how to craft an exciting, well-structured plot, compose correct and and engaging sentences, and write past your writers block to create a complete story — whether it’s a few pages or thousands of words. 

In this private one-student class, I will tutor students through any and all of their writing challenges. We will discuss their ideas, and I can guide them towards making decisions on the things that will help move their writing forward. I can help them create and edit their plots, edit their sentences, improve their dialogue — you name it! 

I am a kind, encouraging teacher who makes students feel welcome and at-ease. Classes with me are fun while also staying efficiently on-track. 

Take this class once or twenty times! Whatever you need to get your novel where you want it to be.

**I don’t read students’ works outside of class time, but I will guide them through editing their own work during class.

Learning Goals

Students will improve their writing skills and acquire the ability to complete entire books, whether short or long.
