Coaching

Are you a writer who feels stuck…

  • deciding what to write about?

  • knowing how to fit writing into your life?

  • understanding where to begin?

I’ve been there and it doesn’t have to stay that way!

Getting unstuck starts with…

We first need focus and direction. It can feel overwhelming to figure out what you really want to do with your love for writing. Do you feel frustrated by the idea of “building a platform”, navigating social media, and finding time to write? Maybe you aren’t even sure if you have something to offer someone else.

Writing can be a joy for you and a gift to others…

When we have a clear picture of the message that we’re specially designed to offer and who it is that we’re offering that message to, it gives us focus and direction. It takes promotion from a place of our feeling like a salesman to instead, offering a gift to someone who needs it and will benefit from it. It frees us up to write in a way that brings joy to us, benefit to others, and glory to God.

I love helping Christian writers understand where they fit - how their unique gifts, passions, and life experiences give them a distinct perspective on life that others can learn from. You DO have something to offer and I would be honored to help you uncover that message and share it with those who need to hear it.

Coaching can help you

A writing coach can help you understand what your goals are and how to achieve them. I can help you…

  • understand what the unique message and perspective is that God has designed you share

  • identify who needs that message and how you can best serve them

  • find creative solutions to time management obstacles

  • understand and overcome the mental obstacles of the inner critic and imposter syndrome

  • make decisions on your next steps so you can make real progress in your writing and create a writing life you love

  • "Amy's teaching on finding and serving my reader has been the single best thing to happen to my writing in years. I thought I had a grip on things but this course has taught me so much. I've completely revamped my writing platform, from branding to messaging and feel so much better about it! I'm so excited. I went from a pedestal position to a coffee chat position. THANK YOU so much! I can't say enough about the progress I've made as a result of going through this material with her."

  • "Working with Amy has helped me so much, both in terms of clarifying my audience and my message, but also in boosting my confidence in God’s message through me. I didn’t realize I was needing that but your class was super helpful and encouraging!"

  • "Amy is a bright, thoughtful, excellent listener with an ability to draw out of you clarity and direction with probing questions. We have known each other for about two years and I have had the privilege of being in writers groups with her and guided and coached in my writing journey. My time with her is invaluable."

I’ve been writing for over 20 years in a variety of venues. I have helped hundreds of writers uncover how their unique passions, life experiences, and perspectives give them a special message to offer others. You DO have something to offer and your words matter! God has designed you to have something to offer someone else. I would be honored to help you find direction and focus in your writing life.

What is coaching and what can you expect from a session with me?

  • A coach is someone who asks insightful questions, actively listens, and helps you to understand your own goals and dreams and overcome the obstacles that get in your way.

  • You are the expert in your own life, but sometimes it helps to have someone else coax that expertise out and help us listen to ourselves.

  • I might have suggestions or thoughts as to what your next steps could be, but you ultimately decide the trajectory for your writing.

The beauty of coaching is that our time is customized to exactly fit your specific needs. A typical 50 minute session will include my listening to where you are at with your writing. What are your goals and desires? Where are you stuck? We will explore how to overcome the obstacles you’re facing - both internal and external. By the end of our session, you’ll come away with some practical next steps so that you can make definitive progress in your writing.
