WRITING Coach
Sometimes writers don’t know the difference between coaching and editing. The graph below explains those differences. As your writing coach I’ll help you develop your skills, talk about the different types of writing, your writing habits, help you set goals, and build your confidence.
I’ll assign writing homework and ask you to send the completed assignment to me before our next meeting so I can review it and be ready to go over it with you.
We’ll decide on and establish a schedule that fits both of our needs. And we’ll decide how we’ll meet: by email, Zoom, or telephone. Hourly or project fees will also be discussed.
If this sounds like what you’re looking for, complete the Contact Form, or Book Online, and let’s talk about how I can help you succeed in your writing journey.
✨ Editor vs. Writing Coach
| Editor | Writing Coach |
|---|---|
| Focuses on the manuscript | Focuses on the writer |
| Corrects grammar, syntax, and formatting | Helps the writer develop skills and confidence |
| Provides detailed feedback on what’s on the page | Guides the writer to clarify ideas before and during writing |
| Improves readability, flow, and tone | Builds writing habits, accountability, and mindset |
| Delivers a polished, corrected draft | Helps the writer finish drafts, revise effectively, and grow long-term |
| Transactional: “I fix it for you” | Transformational: “I teach you to do it yourself” |
| Works best at the end of the writing process | Supports the writer from idea → draft → revision → completion |
| Often a one-time service | Often an ongoing relationship |
