What is coaching?

This is a service for writers. You book a slot with me and we talk through any creative problems or challenges you are having in your work. Sometimes it’s technical, but a lot of the time it’s a very focused chat about the story you want to tell and why you want to tell it.

Most of my work involves doing a deep dive into a script, treatment, etc and producing a written report. However, sometimes writers might only need a one-off session to deal with a particular problem, or sometimes to just get going. In my experience a lot of writers often just need a good listener and a thorough conversation with a few key notes.

It is more affordable for the writer and can often be much more efficient.

Ok, great. But how does it work?

You book a slot with me here, and you tell me about your work and the problems, challenges, or questions you are going through as you write it. Then, I help you work through it.

I offer introductory 20-min consultations for free. This is a chance for us to get a sense of whether we can work well together. I should note: if I feel like I have nothing to add to the process, I will say so.

I don’t have to read any work in advance, but I can if you’d like me to. We can discuss this in our introductory session.

How much does it cost?

The first twenty-minute session is free.

Coaching is €80 per hour thereafter, with discounts available for regular clients or for sessions booked in bulk. Reading time for a short synopsis per session is included in that. Additional reading would be offered at a discounted rate, depending on the project.
