This will be a work in process, and I appreciate your patience while I go through it.


Why Work With Me?
I'm passionate about women's voices being heard. I'm a published Author myself, with real-world experience in storytelling, structure and character development. With eight fiction novels under my belt and counting, I'm also a podcaster who talks to women aged 40+ about the issues they are facing in life, and how to stay visible and relevant in ways that make age and wisdom an asset to be celebrated, rather than ignored. I'm also a Psychologist who understands the different challenges older women face - not just about writing, but about life in general, and I know how to overcome them. I create a safe, judgement-free space for women to explore and share their stories. I know that when it comes to memoirs especially, many women feel vulnerable about writing about their lives, and that there is often a lot of sensitivity needed, when telling certain stories. With me, women can find the confidence to find and use their voices.
I'll help you to tell your story in a way that allows your true voice to be properly heard, in a way that feels safe for you. I'll help you to clarify your ideas about what you want to write and how you want to write it. I'll work with you on content and structure, show you how to find your own 'flow' and writing style that reflects who you really are and what you want to say, and I will help you to understand and overcome the barriers you might have, that are stopping your from getting your story 'out there' in as large or small an arena as you want it to be told. Memoir writing isn’t just about the story; it’s about understanding, processing, and reclaiming one’s life experiences. I don't just helping you write; I help you heal and grow through storytelling.
Whether you’re just starting or polishing a draft, I will ensure you get the right support at the right time. I’m not the 'taskmaster' who pulls you up on grammar or judges your work. I’m here to help you trust your own amazing voice. I'm here to hold safe space for you, if and when the 'messy bits' pop up in your story, I am here to walk gently with you, step-by-step, from your initial concept to finalising your manuscript. And I can help you to get it published, if that is what you'd like.
Writing your story can be an act of reclamation fo the soul. It can be healing. It can be legacy. It can be anything you want it to be. It's a story worth telling, so let's do that. ​You can make a start on your own by completing my questionnaire, here.
With your permission, I'll be happy to contact you to arrange a FREE ten minute confidential Discovery Call, to talk about your passion, your project or your ideas around creating the story you want to tell.
Or, if you want to dive straight in and have a chat about your story, please send me an email and we can take it from there.

Let's get our heads together and make your story real!
Trust me - I'm dying to hear it - and I KNOW I'm not the only one who is!​
