Gail offers insightful, skilled support for published authors and aspiring writers centering on
Your Idea, Your Manuscript and Your Writing Life
You want to write a memoir, novel or an inspirational, nonfiction book and you need support getting started, getting organized, writing it and finishing it. As a seasoned book developer and editor, I will meet you wherever you are in your project and help you take your vision to its next phase of completion.
YOUR IDEA
Art by Gabrielle Abbott
- BOOK DEVELOPMENT
- EDITORIAL GUIDANCE
- CLEAR BLUEPRINT
You've been working hard and have something to show for it. Send me your manuscript for a thorough evaluation of what's working, and what’s not, themes I see coming through, and an assessment of what the manuscript needs at this juncture. I've escorted dozens of writers through to a publication-ready product they love.
YOUR MANUSCRIPT
Art by Gabrielle Abbott
- THOROUGH EVALUATION
- EDITORIAL FEEDBACK
- DETAILED ASSESSMENT
You know you're a writer, but you're not writing. Or you're not writing what you really want to be writing. Perhaps there’s an inner struggle or past disappointment that's interfering with your ability to meet the page, finish your manuscript, or commit to that revision. As a sensitive and experienced writer, editor and life coach, I can help you identify and move through fear and resistance. Together we'll develop sustainable practices to get your writing life back on track again.
YOUR WRITING LIFE
- ENGAGING WITH THE PUBLISHING WORLD
- DRY SPELLS & SETBACKS
- HARNESSING COURAGE
The first step is to tell Gail what you’re working on and what your needs are. She'll contact you to discuss suggested services, fees and other details.
Editing and manuscript services are bid per project, based on word count and services requested. Individual writing consultations are $150 per 60-minute session.
Sessions can be held in Gail's Seattle studio (COVID safety permitting), on the phone or via Zoom video.

TESTIMONIALS
I recognize that I am a white, self-employed, cisgender woman, and I come to my writing services with this background and bias. I am still learning about white supremacy, and its impact on others and myself. One thing I do know for certain: white supremacy and an unjust, racist economic system has interfered with access to writing support and publishing opportunities for individuals who identify as BIPOC.
I want to do my part to correct that imbalance, which is why I am flexible with my pricing for anyone who identifies as BIPOC. If this is how you identify yourself, and you would like to work with me but are not able to afford my editorial rate, I offer discounts ranging between 25-50 %, depending on the size and scope of the coaching services you are seeking.
Please contact me directly to discuss.
