When the Story Is Bigger Than the Draft

Some stories don’t fit neatly inside a single manuscript. They span decades. They carry lineage. They bump up against institutions, silence, and scale.

These are the stories that don’t just ask to be written. They ask to be wielded.

If you’re holding one of them, you probably already know: this isn’t just about getting feedback on a chapter.

This is about shaping the whole.

Who This Is For

This advanced mentorship is designed for women working on:

  • Memoirs tied to academic or policy work

  • Multi-format stories with publishing or production potential

  • Book proposals that need narrative and strategic alignment

  • Complex projects that have already drawn institutional interest — or will

This isn’t a course. It’s a partnership.

What We Do Together

Throughout our work, we’ll shape both the soul and the structure of your project. That may include:

  • Clarifying the premise beyond just personal narrative

  • Sharpening the pitch or proposal language

  • Mapping potential formats (book, film, series, stage)

  • Identifying strategic collaborators, publication channels, or next steps

Every project is different, but what they all share is weight — cultural, historical, personal. This mentorship is designed to hold that.

A Few Things to Know

  • You’re not expected to come polished.
    But you are expected to come ready.

  • I’m not here to “coach” you through motivation.
    I’m here to partner with you on strategy, structure, and the creative clarity this kind of work requires.

  • You’re not paying for hours; you’re paying for precision.
    And for a collaborator who can hold what others can’t.

If you’re working on something that’s hard to name, hard to pitch, or too big for most offerings. This is the one I built for you.

I know what it means to carry a story that’s more than personal. Most importantly, I know what it takes to shape it into something that can actually move in the world.
