ACCELERATE YOUR NOVEL & COMPLETE YOUR FIRST DRAFT BY AUG 31ST 2026!

Desperate to complete your first draft? Want 2026 to be the year it happens? Got a killer novel idea but unsure how to develop it? Looking to unlock your creative potential?

Need assistance with a particular aspect of writing?

Then this is perfect for you!

Working 1-2-1, I will guide, inspire and ensure you achieve your complete first draft in a warm, supportive and encouraging way.

Via unlimited Teams and critique sessions between Feb 1st and end of August 2026, we will work together to achieve that incredible goal - your completed first draft.

Up for the challenge? You can do it for sure, and with us working together, I know the end result will be awesome.

And from there on, you will be able to hone and polish your manuscript until ready to submit to literary agents and publishers.

Interested? For a free 30 minute Zoom session, we can discuss what this will entail.

Core benefits:

1) whilst being fun and enjoyable, the intensity (in all the best, non-pressured ways) will allow you to produce the best story possible, allowing the layers to mature and evolve.

a) a structured, dedicated approach will ensure you achieve your writing goals, and definitely in a shorter space of time (four months) than if unplanned.

b) creation of a writer’s work ethic and momentum

c) you will develop hugely as a writer

And, by working with me…

d) we will factor in accountability to ensure to write each week and achieve your goal

Each session, you will receive feedback from me in how to improve your technique, to ensure you improve daily and weekly. E.G., a classic example being to use less words. The word ‘that’ is a common culprit and, in most cases, can be removed without negatively-impacting the flow or meaning.

FAQ

Suitability?

This package is best suited to writers with a story idea, a reasonable level of writing experience, and, ideally, a project underway that needs a fresh injection of inspiration. However, I once did this package with a beginner and it worked wonderfully, so nothing’s off the table.

How flexible are the sessions?

Very. My schedule is flexible by design and students often vary their session times each day and week. Naturally, we’ll synch diaries on a given day to match.

Are the sessions intense?

No. They are designed to be easy going, relaxed and fun, for that is when we produce our best work. My mantra is to deliver the best coaching I can in a warm, supportive and encouraging environment.

What’s the first step: that’s two fold: 1) we look into your story idea and discuss where you’d like it to go etc. 2) together, we create a daily and weekly action plan, which will constantly evolve as the project builds.

How much does this package cost?

£1,795.00 - giving unlimited coaching, brainstorming, critiquing, editorial and advice sessions.

How is the price calculated?

A first draft is usually 85,000 words. With me critiquing chapters of 3,000 words at a time, taking 1.5 hours minimum, that equates to 42 hours, plus 1-2-1 sessions etc. will equate to a minimum of fifty hours coaching. My usual hourly rate is £40 per hour, taking the total already to £2,000. Plus, there’s the planning work behind the scenes. Therefore, £1,795 equates to very good value.

How do I pay? Via PayPal (see the drop-down menu in the course fees box above) or BACS transfer (details available upon request)

How long do my credits last for? Until end of August 2026

What are the advantages of 1-2-1 sessions?

100% focus on your work, as opposed to the attention being divided amongst a group.

Further advantages:

Access to over twenty-years of my story-creation, writing, editing, publishing and marketing knowledge and experience. Working with me, you will have an enthusiastic, encouraging and motivating coach who understands precisely what is needed to achieve this landmark goal.
