Welcome To The Fiction Writer's Journey!
I’ve been a writing coach for more than thirty years. I’ve had eight books published, including Petersburg, which was a Best Seller in England. I Work With Students All Around The World: I work with students all around the world, either in person or by phone. If you'd like to work with me as your writing coach, the first step is to set up an introductory two hour session, where we'll go over your strengths and weaknesses as a writer. |

Emily's Ten-Week Fiction Writing Workshops
There's an in-person workshop in Yorktown, NY as well as a conference-call workshop that you can join from anywhere in the world. Both workshops meet once a week, for ten-week sessions. Workshop size is limited to just six members, which is small enough that we always have time to listen to and discuss everybody’s writing from the prior week. Get The Details On My Ten-Week Fiction Writing Workshops! |

The Mentoring Program
The Mentoring Program is for anyone wanting to make significant and lasting changes in his or her writing. We'll talk two times a week, more if needed, and I'll teach you to balance the technical aspects of fiction writing with the wonders of the creative journey. If you're blocked in your writing and don't know how to move forward, I'm only an email or phone call away. Explore The Mentoring Program! |
Working on my novel with Emily has been an amazing revelation! I had no idea such wonderful characters and stories were inside me. I invariably finish each phone session inspired and energized toward more and more writing. Emily deepens and widens my creativity and intensifies my connection to the muse.
