Coaching and Mentoring for Writers

KorWriting is rewriting. Writing a novel is the writer’s version of running a marathon and not for the faint-hearted. Novel writing is a layered process and most novels will need several drafts, so it’s easy to lose your way. Mentoring is basically hand holding, guiding you through the process starting with looking at your narrative step outline.

It isn’t just one person that writes a novel. There are several readers on the way to publication that change the shape of a novel and your editor is just one of them. With this service you will reap the rewards of working as a team. A mentoring service offers guidance from beginning to end, either from a published author or professional editor. This is when a literary marriage becomes serious. You will choose your editor and your editor will choose you. After meeting your editor, either in person or on Zoom, your editor will prepare a programme specifically to suit you. This is an intimate service designed to teach you literary technique and different ways to approach novel writing. Attention will be paid to your specific needs: this might be language, character, structure or story content or all of the above.

A service for clients who want help with restructuring chapter-by-chapter. Provided by Skype/Zoom or in person over an extended period.

From £250 a month for 5K, or £500 for 10K.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does a Writers Mentoring Programme work?

This is a bespoke service depending on the individual needs of each writer.

The author would be expected to send their submission at the beginning of the month. The editor has roughly a week to edit their work followed by an hour-long Zoom session to discuss their feedback. The author is then expected to resubmit the same section, having incorporated the editor’s feedback, in the third week of the month. This is followed by a second Zoom session (if necessary) on the editor’s second round of edits and looking forward, on the upcoming instalment.

Can I do online mentoring?

Absolutely, we offer mentoring online using Email, Skype, Zoom or WhatsApp.

Can I choose my editor?

It is important to choose the editor you think best fits you and your project as you will be working closely together for a number of months.

How much does mentoring cost?

The base fee for the mentoring program is £250 a month for 5K, or £500 for 10K.
