“Working with Chaya Bhuvaneswar is hugely rewarding. I had been in a writing rut, but in our first two sessions she set me up with personalized exercises and readings, as well as strategies and a schedule for submitting my work for publication. Her deep knowledge of writing, literary publishing, and encouragement that Chaya brings to our coaching sessions has motivated me to reactivate my creative writing practice.” —Elizabeth Botten
