1.
Half-Hour Phone Consultation
- During
our half hour consultation, we discuss where you are and where
you want to go with your writing. My goal is for you to have a
clearer understanding of the writing process and your place in
it. Without an understanding of the process, we are often working
blindly and this allows our Inner Critic to run rampant and, ultimately,
our creativity and imagination dry up. Our conversation is geared
toward jump starting your writing by giving you a new perspective
of the writing process. The call is totally individualized to
meet your needs.
-
You will receive a phone call or email back from Emily, usually
within 24 hours to set up a time and help you prepare for our
session.. Or you can call me at 914 962 4432.

Email Critiquing Sessions
- Email
me up to 25 pages of your writing, double-spaced. You can send
more than one piece of writing, but the total pages should not
be more than twenty pages with side margins of at least 1 inch.
- Please
send your pages as an attachment in a .doc file. (i.e. a Word
file).
-
If you cannot send in a .doc file or if you prefer, copy and past
your writing into the body of the email.
- Include
any information about you and your writing that you want me to
know. This is not included in the page count but should not go
over two pages, double spaced.
- I
will send you back a detailed critique. You can email me back
questions from the critique and I will respond.
- If
you want me to reread your critique, there is an additional charge.

In-depth Introductory Package
This
package is the most in-depth exploration of your writing, and a
great way to see if my approach to coaching inspires you. The
package includes two phone sessions and a reading of up to fifty
double-spaced pages.
- Within
24 hours of receiving your payment, I will call you (or you can
call me at 914 962 4432).
- During
the first phone call we talk for about a half an hour about you
and your writing.
- Then
we set up a time for our next phone conversation.
- After
that you send me your writing, up to fifty double-spaced pages.
During
the next phone session (we can meet in person if you live within
driving distance of my house in Westchester County, NY), we
explore the writing that you sent me in detail, open up the
piece and take it to the next step. I explain what is working
well in your writing and explain why it is working. I pinpoint
what is not working well enough, explain why and give you tools
that allow you to succeed.
We often explore character development through one of my favorite,
fun and eye-opening techniques, Interviewing the Character.
This is a great way to experience point of view in a visceral
way. We can explore the impact of your Inner Critic and ways
to defang it. The conversation is completely guided by your
writing and your needs. We talk for anywhere from one to two
hours. The session continues until I have an understanding of
your writing process and until you feel inspired and have several
ideas of where to go next with your writing.
|
The
major goal of this session is to inspire you to become the
writer you want to be!
|
| If,
after we speak, sign up for five hours of private work, the
$200 you paid for this introductory package is applied, in full,
toward the purchase of the five hours; this in-depth, introductory
package then becomes free. In addition, you receive my workbook
and tapes, The Art of Fiction Writing for free!
Five
hours of Private Work are $550. The first time you sign up
for five hours, you actually receive up to eight hours of
my time for that price!
I have been offering this great package ever since I began
coaching. Why? Because I want you to be sure that I am the
right coach for you, and I want you to get the most our of
the experience. I know how important your writing is.
