Please remember that mentoring doesn’t guarantee getting a literary agent or publication deal. However, it does offer the opportunity to work with a professional and experienced teacher in a very individualized one-on-one way to strengthen your understanding of your craft and of the writing process, to bring new energy and focus to your project, to push yourself as a writer, and to improve upon your finished product!
Year-Long Novel Writing Mentorship
Over the course of your year-long partnership with Anna, she will offer insights, support, tips, critiques, and suggestions to guide the development, planning, and writing of your novel from start to finish. Whether you are planning to start a new project or have a current work-in-progress or old project you'd like to give some new momentum and direction, Anna will work in a personalized way to provide new ideas, focus, energy, and guidance.
This package includes:
-Two one hour in-person sessions (to take place in Tulsa or via Skype if you are unable to travel to Tulsa). The first in-person session will take place at the beginning of your mentorship period, and the second about half-way through the process.

This package includes:
