Writing Bites

Writing Bites are short writing consultations with me. Ten pages of writing, an outline, a pitch, a few blog posts…whatever writing bite you want me to taste. I’ll send you back a brief critique of the work and some ideas on where you can take it from there. If you have specific questions about the text, let me know. I’m happy to answer them.

Writing Bites are $35.

I have two novels published by Random House. I’ve written stories for The Daily Beast, San Francisco Chronicle, The Oregonian, Barnes and Noble Review and The Weather Channel as well as copy for international ad firms. I’ve taught writing at Saint Mary’s College of California and Pepperdine University. I co-produce Portland’s popular live storytelling series, Back Fence PDX.

Story for Non-Writers

It’s all about the elements that make up story. It’s a story tool kit, as it were. So, if you’re a graphic designer and keep hearing the buzzword story, you can take this class and learn some more buzzwords about story. If you’re a person who has always wanted to write but just never knew where to start, this class starts you off.

It’s very little commitment — 2 hours, $20 — because I have it in my head that people want a creative outlet, but committing a lot of money or time to something new is intimidating. I might be wrong about this, but I think people like cheap and fast.

And you get to talk to me.

How do I know about story?

I have two novels published by Random House. And I’m a professional writer. I do copywriting, blogging for money and regular old journalism. I’ve taught writing at Saint Mary’s College of California and Pepperdine University. And I co-produce Portland’s popular live storytelling series, Back Fence PDX.

Critiques are conducted via email unless otherwise arranged. I will contact you via email once your payment has been processed.

Thank you!
