Book a Write Wellbeing Mentoring Session with Helen
Are you looking for support and guidance around a writing project? Want tips on how to get started in traditional publishing? How to prepare for and survive the process of submission? Advice on dealing with blocks and rejection? Want to know how to manage the anxiety about sharing your work, or just need someone to walk beside you as you write?
In her new #WriteWellbeing mentoring sessions, Helen provides one-one mentoring and support services for writers at any stage of their career.
You may choose to focus on your wellbeing as a writer, to focus on your writing projects, or both.
This includes manuscript guidance and assessment, sensitivity reading of your manuscript (where themes are appropriate to Helen's expertise and personal experiences), help in developing a marketing and social media plan, and more.
Wellbeing services may focus on looking at how you are caring for your mental and physical health when writing, on submission, during editing and the days leading up to publication and beyond. Helen will help you to find your own path, stop the comparison game and feel confident enough to opt out of social media and other traps.
You may want to focus on your writing or combine mentoring and feedback about your manuscript, with some support for your wellbeing. You should have at least a writing project idea in mind.
