“Character is plot, plot is character.”

–F. Scott Fitzgerald

Coaching calls with Kerry feel more like a brainstorming chat with a friend over a glass of wine. We plotted a whole novel in thirty minutes together, and I wrote the novella in three days off the back of it.
Thank you so much, Kerry, you amaze me.

Rosie Sloane

I recently asked Kerry to “work your magic.” She takes great care to copiously review each story and offer specific language improvements that make everything better. She works quickly and provides thoughtful feedback. I’m grateful we’ve connected.

Terrel Lefferts

I have so far worked with Kerry on three books and have been constantly impressed by her professionalism, insight, and attention to detail. She is not only able to identify issues with manuscripts, but also offers excellent solutions for how to fix them.

Frequently Asked Questions

First, we’ll start by figuring out what kind of story you want to write and your goals for publication. After that, we’ll work on expanding your premise into a longer story complete with character arcs, themes, and of course, a great plot.

Everyone has to start somewhere and as long as you’re excited and eager to learn, I can help you write a story you will love to write.

Infact, I often help writers with this kind of thing in an individual coaching call. For example, one of my clients calls me when she has a challenging plot issue. We’ll spend between 60 to 90 minutes solving issues and making sure the plot works with our changes.

I love outlining and collaborating with writers. If you have a great idea and know the kind of story you want to write, we can work together on creating an easy-to-use outline, character bios, and beat sheet.

My primary focus is on story planning, and evaluations but if you need someone to clean up your manuscript, I can recommend some professional and experienced editors and proofreaders.

If you need help with character or promotional art to help you market your book, I’m happy to introduce you to a couple of amazing artists, Persephone and Amber. Contact me for their info and pricing.
