Sculptor Package

The stone is there, the blank sheet of paper is waiting… but your book is trapped somewhere inside. You need a sculptor to set it free. The Sculptor Package is for the writer who already has an idea for a book, but needs help on how to bring out the details that make it engaging. I will help sculpt your idea into the shape of the story you want to tell, chipping away until you can finally see the book’s story coming to life from that idea. Imagine wanting to sculpt a person, and what I would do is take a square stone and give it the outline of the person’s face, their hair, and every element that makes them who they are. But YOU are the artist who knows that person most intimately. You will fill in the fine details that turn that outline of a person into the unique individual only you know them to be.

The Castle-Builder

An idea? What? How do you even come up with one of those? Where do you find it? Is it on Amazon? How much? Trying to wrestle down an idea from the ether and stamp it onto the page is no easy feat. To some, an idea strikes instantaneously, and the words come pouring out like a faucet. To others, ideas develop slowly, and over time, building up like a beautiful piece of classical music. The truth is, developing ideas and crafting them into a story is a skill like any other, and the process is much less magical than we can romanticize it to be. One of the reasons I offer coaching and services in this domain is precisely because I feel I have both a gift in idea creation, and have put in countless hours of the years developing a process of designing stories based on these ideas. The Castle-Builder is one who builds castles in the air, but is in need of a foundation. I will float up into the air and start building your castle, formulate the idea, come up with characters, a setting, plot, story arcs, etc. Your job is to build that foundation that brings the castle down to earth. If you love to write, or have the intuition that you would make a great writer, but are still working on the foundation, GREAT. Keep building that foundation. Once you’ve built it, you’ll find the castle ready there to place right on top.

Refine Your Way

The word refine means to remove unwanted material from something. Rather than design a narrative for your life, what my coaching allows for is refinement of the narrative you have already been walking in. Time is a curious thing, and as we age, there are elements of our life that stray from the path we sought out on, and things we welcome into our life that end up obscuring the goals ahead. Narrative Coaching comes in sessions of 30 minutes or 60 minutes, and during this time, we are going to walk through what you want in life, what you value, what your relationships look like, your health, your job, and your purpose. It’s always beneficial to have an outside perspective in your life, because we become very accustomed to harmful habits, thoughts and behaviors that take us away from the path we want to walk, rather than guide us along it. I will help you determine what the trees (distractions) are in your life, and how we can best set up a narrative to keep you moving toward what will create a meaningful life.
