Writing is hard. How can we be happy, successful writers?
Writerly / Yours is a collaborative writing project. We collaborate to develop your project on your terms.
We envision and plan a new book project. We pitch your project to press and series editors. We draft, edit, and refine your project so that it reflects your best writerly self. We respond to critique in productive ways consistent with your writerly self and your vision of your project.
In the end, we collaborate in order to produce the book (or essay, or essays) you wanted to write. The book that you own with confidence, joy, and pleasure. That kind of writing is what we all want. So let’s work together to make it happen.
Your writerly self is what got you interested in making a book with your name on it. So let’s make that book an expression of your best and most capable writerly self.
