consult Elizabeth

 

 

I currently offer one-on-one creative consultations. This is what they’re like. 

You get my practical, effective, intuition- and neuroplasticity-based methods that have worked for hundreds of writers, from beginners to long-standing professionals, since 2003. Check out some of my students’ success stories. We can work on the genius/mess of your writing project or on larger creative blocks. I specialize in the dark corridors of the “writer brain” that tend to act up whenever we’re moving forward to create something new, risky, and true that comes from our hearts.

My writing methods are based in the right brain, accessing targeted, intuitive solutions from the start. Unfortunately, the majority of writing workshops prioritize logical, critical, left-brain thinking that often slows creative progress. (The ubiquity of this approach is what inspired me to create my classes way back when, at the request of a Park Slope friend in need of a workshop.) Intuitive, right-brain, creativity-inducing techniques, on the other hand, usually work pretty quickly to get you into a groove.

I am a “highly sensitive person” and I emphasize creating functional neurodivergent strategies and structural supports for similar writers when needed.

Consultations last 60-90 minutes, but block off an extra hour or two to write or noodle around afterwards.

I usually open my books in January. Referrals from previous students/clients have priority but if I have spots left over I will announce them here.
