THE ART & THE CRAFT

Mentorship with Jess helps rewire your mind to create your most effective writing process while tapping into your deepest artistry and building your craft. Start with clear goals for both your artistic voice and your craft. Each session you will check in with these goals and adjust accordingly.

Each session will be a mix of the art and craft based on your needs and wants. At the end of each session you will have notes on your pages and clear strategies, tools, and assignments on what to do next.

She will adjust her style to be effective for the way you learn. STRONG PROCESS LEADS TO STRONG PRODUCT Discover the process that works for you and enables you to produce your best writing.
