Hourlong Private Consults in return for donations to RAICES Texas

I've been getting a lot of interest but no offers so I've added STARTING BIDS-- please see below

I'm teaming up with the Hudson Valley Writers' Center to offer two hourlong private fiction-writing consults in their beautiful space in Sleepy Hollow, NY, in return for donations to RAICES Texas.

On July 24, RAICES tweeted: “Children are still in cages. Parents still don’t know where their children are. Some were coerced illegally into leaving the country. The media isn’t writing as many stories but the problem has not gone away.”

For one of the hours I'll take the highest offer
STARTING BID $25

I'd like to give the other to someone working to fight xenophobia and bigotry, either in your life or in your writing or both (including being a writer from a community that could use more representation)
STARTING BID $5


I'll be taking offers until August 3. Use the "CONTACT ME" form to get in touch.

About me

What can you do with this consult?

-Tell me about a novel or story you've always wished you could write and what's stood in your way, and we'll talk about how to get started and make a plan (if you decide you really want to!).

-Tell me about the novel or story you're working on and where you're challenged.

-Note: It's optional to bring pages of writing. I suggest bringing only a couple, or a longer piece with a scene or two highlighted. If you want me to read more before we get together let's discuss.

-Tell me about your novel that stalled years ago, and work out a plan for what to do next.

-Talk about anything writing-related at all—it's 100% your time!
