I spent nearly three decades teaching Classics and literature in secondary schools - reading texts closely, helping students find meaning in structure, and believing that every story has an architecture worth discovering.

When I left teaching, I brought all of that with me. I am now a certified book coach working with women who are writing fiction - women who have a manuscript they have been circling for months or years, who know something is wrong but cannot see what it is from the inside.

That is exactly what I am trained to find. Using my Emotional Arc Method - a discovery-based approach to structure - I help you see the shape of your story clearly, often for the first time.
