I’ve made these FREE resources for YOU!
Learn how to generate compelling story ideas by combining three key elements: Core, Concept, and Character. In my signature 12-page guide for novelists, I provide you with a system that helps you turn your ideas into stories readers can’t put down. This guide is also helpful during the editing stage. If your story isn’t working, there’s a good chance your Core, Concept, and Character are not in alignment.
Say goodbye to ho-hum stories.

I host free one-hour writing accountability sessions on Zoom. The schedule rotates, but there are 2-3 sessions per week. We show up, spend the first couple minutes sharing our goal for the session, write for about 50 minutes, then close out with a check-in. You are welcome to come late and leave early. Sign up to receive the weekly schedule!
Show up. Do the work. Repeat.
