Coaching

Drawing a complete blank? Endless string of vague ideas but don't know which to hone in on? Consider coaching—by itself or alongside an edit. We'll ask the right questions and work one-on-one to find an angle that works.

  • An initial consultation to learn about you and where you're at
  • A second call to continue brainstorming or review story direction
  • Ongoing support with one-off questions and advice

If added to a package, we'll discuss a timeline that makes sense for you on our first call.
