BENEFITS TO MENTORSHIP
Inspiration
The creative energy required to write needs to be recharged regularly, let’s be honest, sometimes daily or hourly. Having a dedicated writing coach to bounce ideas off of and brainstorm with can stoke the flames of your imagination.
Clarity
In writing, knowing where you’re going with your story can be half the battle. Just as a story plot can act as a GPS for your book, committing to clear writing goals can help you stay on track and achieve those goals.
Accountability
Accountability is a powerful tool for creating change. If you haven’t written all week, it may be easier to hide from yourself than from your coach. The simple act of telling your coach your intentions can make a significant difference in your desire to follow through. And if we find that you are putting something off week after week, we can get to the root cause together.
Emotional support
Writers face rejection on a regular basis. Novels are rejected, agents don’t answer queries, and reviewers are often unkind. When the going gets tough, it’s crucial to have someone in your corner!
Opportunity to focus on yourself
Having a writing coach gives you the opportunity to focus on your dreams. In day-to-day life, being pulled in so many directions often means that your writing gets pushed to the bottom of your to-do list. Having a set time to meet with your coach gives you the space to think about your writing project and what’s really important to you.
Professional development
Writing can be every bit as much a business endeavor as a creative one. If you’re interested in getting your work out in the world, it’s important to stay on top of the developments in the rapidly changing publishing industry. A writing mentor can share inside information and point you in the right direction.
COST
Cost of monthly programs determined on a project-by-project basis
