Jenna Evans Welch
My work with Heather was absolutely transformational. I had been reading and utilizing her work online for over a year by the time I reached out to ask for coaching, and the one-on-one work completely changed my relationship with writing.
When I signed up for coaching I was knee deep in my fourth book for publication. I was also exhausted, burned out, and doubting my ability to continue on my path as an author. Heather was an excellent listener and an absolute wealth of knowledge. I found our phone conversations to be particularly helpful as we walked through the aspects of my relationship with writing that were not working for me.
I left each session with a page full of new insights and ideas (and best of all, hope!), and as soon as I began implementing her techniques, I felt my relationship with writing (and myself) deepen and expand. Before working with Heather, my own process had always felt like a giant mystery to me—it basically felt like fighting my way through a chaotic cloud before somehow managing to emerge with a book in hand.
Every book felt like a miracle that I was afraid I would not be able to replicate. Heather not only insisted that I have a writing process, she helped me figure out what mine is (hint: it is absolutely nothing like the many craft books I’d read in a desperate attempt to make writing easier, and yes, I DO have a process!). By figuring out how my brain tells stories, I felt a lot of anxiety and uncertainty lift, and for the first time I felt true confidence in my ability to complete my work.
I ended up learning a brand new technique for mapping out my plots and was able to complete my novel. The practices and techniques Heather has taught me have brought me confidence, peace (really!), and restored my joy in writing. I can’t recommend working with Heather enough!
