If you're interested in working with me on poems or prose, I have limited space for regular one-to-one mentoring.
How it works
You send me up to 10 pages of poems or approx 5,000 words of prose, which could be a chapter of a novel or a short story. I then read, reread, annotate and provide detailed feedback on those pages. We then meet up over Zoom and, for 60-90 minutes, talk it through. We will discuss, explore, weigh things up, second-guess ourselves and generally dig into your writing to try and find out what makes it work (or not.)
"It is no exaggeration to say that Joe’s tutoring was absolutely pivotal to my first novel, The Doll Factory. His enthusiasm, his keen eye for detail and his gentle encouragement made the difference between the book being written and consigned to my drafts folder. Not only that, but his input and ideas helped shape the novel into the form it ultimately took. I cannot recommend Joe enough!"
Elisabeth Macneal, best-selling author of The Doll Factory and The Burial Plot
