Writing Group Coaching

A man is having a video call on his laptop with Judy Wearing who is smiling and wearing glasses. The background shows a shelf with books. The scene is set on a desk with a coffee mug, a closed notebook, and a pen.

It would cost about $2500 to bring together a group of experienced people to edit and share writing for an evening. With a writing group you get that - every month!

I can’t give you an effective writing group, but I can provide coaching to help you make it happen for yourself.

Get personal advice to get your writing group off the ground and flying high.

I can help you:

  • Find group members

  • Set up formats and schedules that work

  • Run a first meeting to make joint decisions and establish guidelines

  • Trouble-shoot difficult situations
