🖤 MY PROMISE TO DARK-FICTION WRITERS

Your Story Is Heavy. Your Process Shouldn’t Be.

You’re writing a story with weight—trauma, transformation, monsters, grief, power, love, wounds, vengeance, redemption.
These aren’t light stories. They demand emotional courage, clarity, and safe guidance.

That’s where I come in.

I bring a blend of:

  • Trauma-Aware Coaching
     
  • Developmental Editorial Craft
     
  • Technical Structure & Process Thinking
     
  • Emotional Insight & Creative Support
     
  • Professional Publishing Knowledge
     

I help writers turn darkness into narrative power.
Confusion into clarity.
Shame into voice.
Chaos into catharsis.

🥀 WHY AUTHORS TRUST ME WITH THEIR HEAVIEST STORIES

“I Coach the Writers Who Carry Heavy Stories.”

I’m not the coach for light, fluffy writing.
I’m the coach for writers who:

  • feel overwhelmed by their book
     
  • carry emotional weight into their stories
     
  • write dark romance, fantasy, or psychological fiction
     
  • are scared to look too closely at the themes
     
  • feel stuck between inspiration and fear
     
  • need structure to hold the chaos
     
  • want someone who gets the emotional cost of writing deeply
     

I merge professional craft with emotional intelligence.
I honor your story and the version of you who needs to tell it.
