Novel / Memoir Writing Coach

Got an idea for a novel or memoir but can’t get it started or keep it going? During an initial consultation meeting, we’ll set up a realistic plan for your writing schedule based on your goals. Then I’ll check in with you, give you assignments to guide your work, review your pages, help you think through the story, and whatever else will help you get the words down.

$150/hour

Ad-hoc Consultation

The scariest part of the process is the blank page. But having a partner makes it easier. During ad-hoc consultations, we’ll look at the assignment or writing project in front of you, brainstorm a few possibilities and ways in, talk about high level structure and planning, and then determine the best way to get going on it.

$100/hour-long session

I wish I’d hired Tricia as a writing coach years ago. She listened when I described my goals, proposed a project plan for achieving them, and then has done what all great coaches do: motivated me to do the work and held me accountable.

Tricia is a gifted writer, skilled storyteller and, crucially for me, stellar project manager. She has helped me take my writing farther in three months than I had in three years. I can’t recommend her highly enough.
