Private sessions- By Mutual Arrangement - Private coaching sessions are designed to best serve you, your work and your goals and particular needs. This type of arrangement is $75.00 per sloppy hour. I usually like to chat before any agreement is made so that we can talk about your work, your goals and to see if we're a good fit.

Speak Easy-Speak Hard - Our groovy Spoken Word Salon held at the beautiful wine Bar “In FIne Spirits”. It is designed to feature you and the work you’ve done.

Telling Our Stories - Everyone has a story and this workshop is designed to develop and explore tools that make your stories accessible and exciting. For new or seasoned storytellers, who want to tell your stories at family dinners, in bars, spoken word events or for public speakers, or performers.

Please bring material to be shared in class. This material is a work in progress- so reading it or just talking through an idea is fine. This class is designed for you- so let me know how I might best serve you and your process.

Check list of things to bring:

• Please bring material to be shared in class. This material is a work in progress- so reading it or just talking through an idea is fine. This class is designed for you- so let me know how I might best serve you and your process. And if you don’t have material to share come anyway, your feedback and support is important. It will also serve to motivate and excite you to get back to the page. Also- If you need to miss a date, let me know head of time and we can arrange a privates session

• Two copies of your materials- double spaced

• Stuff you need to write with, your good luck charms if you are so inclined (writers like ball players are a superstitious bunch), Your sense of adventure, an open mind and your spirit of generosity and fun.


Lastly, I encourage you to be in the creative process as you go thru your day; while you wash the dishes or sort laundry or daydream. I encourage you to honor your gifts by writing on a consistent basis. I encourage you to write through your fear, your confusion, your uncertainty and your busy schedule. And to always, always listen for the story.
