What a Writing Coach Does

What a Writing Coach Does

I was recently asked to consider teaming up on an e-book project about writing books.

“Listen to the presentation I gave last month and let me know what you think,” the publishing professional said.

So I listened to a funny, informative, 90-minute seminar that included a section on building a solid writing support network. We’re not talking about your friends and family who will most likely tell you that your writing is wonderful, but rather a network of fellow writers and people who work with writers.

The advice ranged from joining a writing group to hiring a consulting editor. Never once was the notion of bringing on a writing coach mentioned. I can only conclude that too many people, even those in the publishing industry, do not understand what a writing coach does and why a writing coach is so darn helpful when you’re writing a book—any kind of book.

So I figured that I would remind you of a post I wrote years ago, very soon after I started this blog. If you’ve ever wondered what a writing coach does and how a writing coach could help you, or if you’re simply tired of struggling to produce the writing you have in mind, this one’s for you.   https://lindengross.com/2010/03/05/why-hire-a-writing-coach/
