Looking for 1 to 1 mentoring? Book a session with Kate
Kate has worked as a writing mentor since her career in publishing, working with non-fiction and fiction writers, and poets to help them kick-start their creativity, commit to their practice, get over imposter syndrome, reflect on their process, negotiate writers’ block, edit their project and just get their writing done.
Clients include professional writers and hobby writers. Whether you want to have a one-off session or have a monthly or weekly accountability session, get in touch to see how Kate could help you.
Regular or one-off reflective and therapeutic writing practice sessions for personal growth and reflection are also available.
It’s the perfect space to concentrate on your own goals and desires, and negotiate the hurdles you might be facing.
Initial session: 1 hour: £90 (£100 if to include preread of up to 1,500 word sample, or 3 poems)
Follow-up sessions: £35 for 30 minutes, £60 for 50 minutes.
Sessions can (and mostly do) include writing time in response to bespoke prompts.
Written feedback to be agreed separately, depending on availability.
Sessions are on Zoom (UK time), or in-person in Oxford. Further afield in-person sessions by prior agreement.
An initial 10-minute assessment chat is always possible, with no obligation to commit if you find it’s not for you.
Get in touch with Kate today to arrange an informal chat to discuss your needs, hopes and questions.
“‘Now, I AM a writer, thanks to Kate and her help and prompts. I now make the time to write most days and I am over 13.000 words into a story that was an effort, [now I am] almost tripping over ideas to move the story onwards. Thank you Kate, I hold you wholly responsible!’
