About Emily: Novelist and Writing Coach and Mentor

About Writing Coach, Emily Hanlon
I'm a novelist with a passion for teaching others how to unleash their stories onto the Blank Page. I know how to do this: I've been a writing coach for thirty-five years.

​​I have eight books published, including Petersburg, which sold to GP Putnams for $250,000. ​The paperback was sold to Dell for another $200,000. Petersburg was translated into Italian, German, and Spanish and reached the Best Seller's list and reached the Best Sellers' list in England. 

I hold weekly writing workshops as well as three private coaching programs.

​I have been holding an annual, week-long Women's Writing and Creativity Retreat since 1998. 

Over the years, the retreat has been held in Abiquiu and Taos, New Mexico, Edisto Island, South Carolina, Black Tail Ranch, Montana, Glastonbury, England, and Tuscany. The retreat finally found a home in my waterfront homes in Bar Harbor, Maine, home of Acadia National Park. 
​How I See The Path Of The Fiction Writer: The freedom to enjoy the challenge of creativity while we write is important for fiction writers, but all too often we see our limitations instead of the vast potential of our imagination. When this happens, we walk the narrow channels of what we think we should write instead of seeing the potential and possibilities of the stories and characters who are waiting for us to give them life. My work as your writing coach is to ​Teach, Support, and Inspire you to do that!
  • I teach you the writing techniques you need to write fiction.​
  • I support you as you undertake the risks and challenges of The Fiction Writer's Journey. 
  • I inspire you to unleash your imagination so you can see and feel the excitement of your journey as a fiction writer.​
​​​My Background: I graduated from Barnard College with a BA in Writing and English Literature, and was a founding member of the ​National Writer's Union and co-creator of the hugely popular Westchester County Annual Writing Conference.
​In addition to my novels and children's books, I've written many articles on writing and the creative process, and I've been published in Writer's Digest.​
