Fallon Clark || Story Coaching and Development
Your Story Path
Each writing or editing adventure is a little different and depends on the adventurer you are and the level of guidance you like. Regardless of the path you choose, your completed or revised novel will be in your hands and one step closer to publication when we're done.
The right path depends on you! Choose your own adventure:
The Backpacker:
Story Coaching
$150 per hour
This is for you if...
You're stuck in the writing or revising process but you like having a person to contact when you need a bigger tool than the one in your bag, so you can get back to doing what you do best.
You bring a passage or a few (2,000 to 3,000 words on average) to our conversation, along with questions you have or challenges you face. We'll read your passage aloud and work through it together.
