What Clients Say About Working With Me
-
“Working with Cara was a true joy! I appreciated her structured approach to the coaching sessions. With Cara's help I was able to dig deep into the story and true journey I wanted to create for my characters. Her insightful questions forced me to go beyond the surface and truly focus on the physical and emotional transformations that happen in the story.”
Ed F., fiction client

“Cara is a great listener, on top of being such a nuanced and thoughtful reader. All the initial activities (character profile, inside outline, etc.) were total game changers for me -- simple and vital but somehow inaccessible to me before. The structures she provides get right to the heart of where a project is and where it might/could/must go.”
Giavanna M, fiction client

“In six months of working with you, you helped turn my amorphous brain of a book into a solid skull with a complete spinal column and nervous system. Now I feel ready to go forward, attaching the muscles and limbs to the rest of my book's developing body. Had I not had your keen insight and care, I would have easily abandoned this project, as I had many others in the past.”

“Cara was kind, compassionate, and fully invested in my story. I felt like I had an engaged reader with a professional editor’s eye on my side. Cara blends constructive criticism very well with encouragement and positive feedback. She’s definitely someone I can see myself working with long term.”
Elli C., fiction client

“Cara is skilled and knowledgeable, direct yet supportive, wise and insightful. She is well resourced. I feel like my book wouldn’t have gotten done without her!”

“Your skill in book coaching is worth money. You aren't just hanging up a shingle to gather clients. You are listening and understanding what your clients want to do and then you guide them to that end, and that is worth your clients' time and money. Working with you makes me want to write more.”
Ame D., fiction client

“I wanted to work with a book coach because I needed someone who knew how to get me from Point A to Point B. Cara was that someone for me. She’s an excellent listener, she offered tons of insightful feedback on my work, she’s very reliable, and she’s a genuinely nice person."
