Introduction: I serve as somewhat of a midwife to books and other storytelling projects: respecting the shape they naturally take, observing before suggesting, and always keeping the writing experience in the hands of the writer. I specialize in working with autobiography, memoir, and personal narrative of all sorts; I believe that writing ones life story is one of the bravest and most important things a person can do. Since 2001, I have worked individually with clients to produce and complete manuscripts of many different sorts.
My goal as a writing teacher is to create a safe, inspiring place for writers to explore new projects and continue current ones. Past and upcoming group writing workshops include: Generative Writing, Memoir Writing, Writing the Pregnancy/Parenting Experience, Myths in Everyday Life, Writing about Wine.
