Compassionate Creativity Coaching: Beta Program!
As a vegan lifestyle coach and educator (certified through Victoria Moran’s Main Street Vegan Academy), I’m particularly interested in helping writers and other artists work through creative blocks by cultivating an attitude of true benevolence toward animals and the natural world. I’ll be taking on a small number of beta clients in early 2018: free coaching in exchange for feedback so I can fine-tune my program. Join my email list if you’re interested in being a part of this, and you’ll be notified when the discovery period starts.
Note: If you’re looking for straight-up guidance and support in transitioning to a plant-based diet and lifestyle, check out this listing of my many wonderful MSVA colleagues.
Literary Midwifery (Fiction and Nonfiction)
For almost twenty years (since junior year of high school!) I’ve been working on almost every side of the publishing industry: as a bookseller, then an editorial assistant at HarperCollins, and finally as a novelist and travel writer. If you need help formulating your book idea or revising your manuscript into publishable shape, I might just be your girl—especially if you’re writing science fiction/fantasy or new age/spirituality. I can also offer you practical advice on finding a literary agent and/or publishing options beyond the “big four.”

Ego Management for Creative People
Tailored for adults or for high school, undergraduate, and grad students in the arts.
If you’re one of those people who reads self-help books but falters when it comes to putting what you’ve learned into practice, this is the workshop for you: using the principles outlined in Life Without Envy, we’ll explore concrete ways of redefining success and actually living by that new definition.
Private Writing for Public Impact
Tailored for adults or for high school, undergraduate, and grad students in the arts.
The Tenderheart Workshop
Tailored for individuals or small groups.
Ever wondered if adopting a healthier lifestyle could have a beneficial effect on your creativity? When I went vegan in 2011 I experienced a marvelous productivity boost that continues to this day, so I’m convinced there’s a connection between what I eat and how I write. In this workshop you’ll learn both the philosophical and the practical ins-and-outs of what Dr. Will Tuttle calls “the world peace diet,” and why shifting to a plant-based diet will make you a happier and healthier artist. Tea and vegan gluten-free cupcakes will be served, and you’ll leave with loads of resources (including plenty of quick, easy, delicious recipes).
