THERE’S A READER WHO NEEDS YOUR STORY
BE INSPIRED. GET PRODUCTIVE. WRITE YOUR STORY.
Writing can be really difficult. There are soooo many things to remember - your audience, your genre, your plot lines, showing not telling, and the list carries on.
You can write and submit manuscripts for YEARS never knowing why they keep returning with the I’m sorry your book isn’t a good fit for us.
How do you know if you’re on track? You could ask your mom, but unless she’s Nora Roberts, she probably won’t be the best option. Why? Because she doesn’t know THE INDUSTRY.
So what can you do?

WRITING CONSULTANT, COACH...BUTT-KICKER
I’m Suzanne Jefferies, writing consultant, coach and butt kicker. The butt kicking is optional, but in this line of work, it’s often the added push that’s needed to get my clients from wannabe writer to agented or published author.
I started out editing manuscripts, and found that my developmental edits were becoming mini-tutorials in all of the aspects of writing. So why not cut out the middle process, and head straight for the mini-tutorials? This means I can pinpoint the challenges, and generate solutions for the writer that they can apply again and again, not only to their current work but to future works.

What my clients have said...
"I just wanted to thank you for the incredible contribution you’ve made to my writing in the last few weeks. The things you told me and showed me have really clicked for me, and I’ve made more progress since your input than I’ve made in years.
Thanks for undertaking the awful job of going through my first draft, because the changes you suggested have made the world of difference. And thanks for going through those first chapters I sent; knowing I’m on the right track has done a great deal for my confidence, which, I reckon, is half the battle.” Meg Chronis, Coaching client, 2019 ROSA Strelitzia winner
"You have helped me understand the process so much, plus what is needed to set up a book. I have learned so much from you!! Your tips, pointers, encouragment and ideas were most helpful to me in getting started on my writing.” Debbie L, Coaching client
