The Single Session

For the writer who needs dedicated time, but not a standing commitment. Some writers thrive with a consistent weekly rhythm. Many others do their best work in bursts: a few weeks of deep focus, then a quieter stretch, then full throttle again. If your writer falls into the second camp, a standing mentorship meeting can feel like pressure to produce work rather than support when they need it most.

The Single Session is designed for writers who already have a creative practice and know, more or less, what they need help with. One focused session can revive a draft that's stuck, flesh out an idea that's been lingering in their notes app, or fully polish material for creative submissions. Your writer brings in exactly what is most crucial in their craft right now, and we dig into it together.

Every session includes personalized instruction and feedback built around what your writer brings to the table, along with written follow-up notes they can take back to their work after we're done. There's no intake paperwork, no curriculum to follow, and no expectation of what comes next. You book when it makes sense and take a break when it doesn't.

A Single Session makes a wonderful gift for the young writer in your life who has everything except someone who truly gets them. Whether it's for a birthday, a holiday, or just because, you're giving them something real: dedicated time with a mentor who will meet them exactly where they are.

One or two sessions a month works beautifully for writers who already have a dedicated writing practice, and who need a 1:1 workshop space at most biweekly rather than at a weekly rate.

For writers undertaking longer, more complex projects - a novel, a portfolio, a suite of competition submissions - or who want the kind of deep editorial attention that builds over time, the Bespoke Mentorship is likely the better fit. At four sessions a month, you'll save $100 per month compared to individual booking, and the continuity makes a real difference for ambitious, long-term work.

If you're not sure which option fits your writer best, an intake call is the right place to start. We'll talk through where your writer is and what kind of support would best serve them.
