Coaching for Writers

Have you struggled with a long writing project, unsure of how to get it to the point of submission for publication? Do you feel blocked at times by your own hopes and ambitions for your writing and not wanting to produce anything that does not meet your high standards? 
 
Whether you are at the point of writing your first piece or submitting a long manuscript (novel, memoir or short story collection) to publishers, Chaya can work with you on an individual basis for a nominal fee (sliding scale applied particularly for artists/writers affected by COVID). Over as few as three sessions, you can see a meaningful change in your approach to how you organize your precious writing time. Using psychotherapy education, you can become the productive writer you have always wanted to be or were before any obstacles (i.e. life!) seemed to get in the way at times.

“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
