When you have a story to tell…
You have a story, blog or book that you want to–or need to–finish. But unforeseen snags are stopping you. Maybe I can help.
Working with a coach and editor can help you move forward with constructive guidance and feedback. I offer a monthly, repeating, course so that you can finish you book or regularly blog with support and feedback. I also work with individuals who want a highly tailored approach. Explore below!

“Working with you, Cynthia, has been the best decision I made in a long time. I’m stretching and enjoying every chapter. I would not have continued writing at this pace if it wasn’t for your class, your encouragement, your experience, and your advice. There have been many months when I wasn’t ready mentally to put anything down on paper, but knowing that you’re there to help me changes my mindset and gives me the energy and creativity to get going.
