How does it work?

Once you’ve completed payment for the session, you’ll receive a link via email to choose your preferred timeslot. After the time is confirmed, you’ll receive another email with the Zoom link to join on the scheduled day.

To make the most of your 20 minutes, please come with specific questions or areas of your novel you’d like help with – whether it’s character development, dialogue, structure, or overcoming writer’s block. The more focused your questions, the more our mentors can dive deep into the heart of your story!
