Coaching for Writers, Screenwriters and Animation Writers

👋 Hi, I’m Katy – Your Writing Coach

I take writers from frustrated and stuck to writing every day and selling themselves with confidence.

Work with a Writing Coach Who Helps You Get Results

I help ambitious writers sit down and write, sharpen their confidence and start selling themselves and their work with pride

Is this you…?

• You daydream about writing but don’t do anything about it
• You’re great at writing on commission but never get around to your own original work 
• You’re scared to take the first step
• You’ve written a script or manuscript, but don’t dare send it out
• You prioritize other people’s goals, but never your own
• You have time to write, but still find excuses not to sit down and do it
• You start writing and then get stuck… and stop
• You’re struggling with a creative or mental block

If this sounds familiar, let’s work together

“Katy’s quite honestly brilliant at this!! I’d never have written the 110,000 words of my first novel without her… Of course there were bumps on the road but Katy always found inventive solutions or options for me to keep going.”

Frances, screenwriter & novelist

How My Writing Coaching Works

I’m passionate about the psychology of being a writer because having the right mindset is essential for reaching your goals.

Being a writer isn’t just about getting words on the page – it’s also about navigating the emotional rollercoaster that comes with it. And it’s about building a career, not just a manuscript.

That’s why my coaching supports you, not just your writing.

We’ll strengthen your mindset and quiet that sneaky inner critic. We’ll build simple, sustainable habits to help you write more often – and with less stress.

I can be a sounding board to help you untangle plot knots, develop characters, or refine your structure. If needed, I’ll also review and annotate your work between calls so we can dig into the details together.

We’ll also get practical. Together, we’ll set clear writing goals, break them down into manageable steps, and create a timeline that works for your life. I’ll follow up with notes, emails and check-ins so you stay on track – even when life gets in the way.

When it’s time to share your work with the world, I’ll help you build a simple strategy and support you in finding the courage to send your work out. Whether that means querying agents, approaching producers, or just pressing publish, you won’t be doing it alone.

We can also work on your long-term career vision and build your confidence in talking about your work—online, in person, or in meetings.

And best of all? We’ll bring the joy back into your writing process so it feels creative, energising, and fun again.

Wherever you are on your writing journey – just starting or knee-deep in revisions – I’ll meet you there.

I coach writers to stay on track, feel more joyful, and finish what they start.

“With Katy’s support I stopped being someone with the pipe dream of “one day writing a screenplay” and became someone who “has actually finished a screenplay”. A minor miracle. Katy’s approach is unfailingly supportive and pragmatic. I always looked forward to our conversations because I knew she would cheer me up and help me overcome my blocks and barriers.”

Olly Rowe, screenwriter

Don’t struggle alone, let me hold you accountable to your writing dream with one of these writing coaching programmes…

“I was looking for a mentor to escalate my writing productivity – Katy was so much more than that!  She helped me develop a strong writing habit that fitted in with my demanding lifestyle and she addressed – gently – where I’m my own worst enemy. 
She supported my fear of sharing my writing and networking to meet producers.  She was patient, kind and innovative with her techniques, great at making it simple and easy.
If you are looking for someone to coach you to a new level of writing, I can’t recommend Katy highly enough.”

Tamsin Larby, screenwriter
