Training Builds Important Skillsets

Ongoing training for writers isn’t a luxury—it’s the foundation of strong, market-ready writing. Whether you’re working on a novel, memoir, or non-fiction book, writing training helps you sharpen your voice, strengthen your story structure, and avoid the common mistakes that turn readers away. Through targeted writing courses, workshops, and one-on-one coaching, writers learn how to develop interesting characters, tighten pacing, and edit their own work with confidence. Investing in professional training for writers not only improves your craft—it also saves time in revision, makes collaboration with editors easier, and increases your chances of successfully publishing and building a loyal audience.

Here's Why You Should Train With Me

 When you train with me, you’re learning from someone who knows the craft, the industry, and the learning process. I combine professional editorial standards, adult learning best practices, and real-world indie author experience to help you grow your skills with clarity, encouragement, and concrete results.

EdTech Experience

I don’t just teach writing—I’ve lived it from every angle. I’ve spent over a decade in EdTech helping build a library of more than 35,000 training videos for adult learners. That experience taught me how to break big concepts into clear, practical steps that real people can use right away.

Book Editor/Content Creator

 I’ve also worked as a book editor for indie presses and as a freelance editor, shaping manuscripts for structure, voice, and readability so they’re truly ready for publication. 

Published Author

As an author myself—of cozy mysteries, a memoir, and more—I understand how vulnerable and overwhelming the writing and publishing process can feel.

Classic Story Structure Training

Learn the 5 essential stages of story structure—exposition, rising action, climax, falling action, and resolution—and how they work together to create stories that hook readers and actually land the ending. You’ll leave with a simple framework you can apply to fiction, memoir, and short stories, plus a clearer plan for revising your current draft.

Foreshadowing Training: Plant Clues, Build Tension, and Nail the Payoff

Foreshadowing is one of the most powerful tools for building suspense, shaping reader expectations, and making twists feel satisfying—without giving away your ending. In this live craft talk, you’ll learn how to plant subtle signals through dialogue, setting, objects, and character choices so your story feels cohesive from the first page to the last. We’ll define what foreshadowing is (and isn’t), review quick examples, and practice a simple “plant and payoff” method you can use while drafting or revising.
