Working 1-1 is truly where the magic is. The creative process can be elusive and I am as well versed as everyone else in distraction techniques and losing focus. One of the best decisions I made was working with a mentor when I was working towards a poetry collection. She became someone I deeply trust with my words. I wouldn’t be the writer or facilitator I am today without that experience. I’d love to do that with you!
I can help with:
Accountability
Structure
Discipline
Learning to trust your own instinct
Editing
Experimenting with different approaches
New ways into the subjects you’re exploring
Advice about submitting and publishing
Confidence
HAVING FUN!
Every mentoring session is a collaboration and we will work together to find the best rhythm that works for you. There is no project or idea too big or too small.
Say hi if you are intrigued and we can jump on a pressure-free call to see if we might be the right fit!
“Caroline creates a mentoring space that feels truly encouraging and nourishing. Working together has been so supportive for the curation and editing of my poetry, alongside my general development and growth as a writer. Caroline’s guidance has felt deeply attuned to my style and the intentions behind my work, while also drawing on her extensive knowledge of poetic form and the wider industry, which has been incredibly insightful!”

“One of my biggest obstacles in writing is the struggle to be satisfied with the thoughts and ideas in my head and then translating them onto the page. Caroline employs techniques to break the cycle of judgement of what is being written which is a great benefit to anyone struggling with any sort of writers' block.”
— Rob Panza
“Caroline helped me find a writing process that fits in with the time I have to write in the week and one that most naturally sits next to the way I work, but that enhances it and offers more efficiency and less time spent over-thinking. With a renewed approach, I'm excited to embrace writing as more of a ritual and space of connection between myself, my thoughts and my readers, and elevate my business!”
