WHAT PEEPS ARE SAYIN’

Debbie showed me how to harness my inner genius.

Debbie is kind, energetic, centered, and ah-ma-zing, and she passes these traits on to everyone she works with. Prior to working with her, my art and business were extremely disconnected. I felt a constant battle between being creative and being productive. As a result, I shirked away from marketing, posting, and content creation, and my business suffered. Debbie showed me how to harness my inner genius. To me, that alone is a true testament of her consistency and results as she forges a path for creatives everywhere.

Deb's encouragement gives me the oomph I need on days when I'm all "why would anyone read anything I write?"

I appreciate Debbie’s eye for story detail and her ability to see the diamond-in-the-rough regarding any of my story ideas. Her encouragement gives me the oomph I need on days when I’m all “why would anyone read anything I write?”

Deb provides invaluable feedback and has such an eye for detail, especially in character consistency and story logic.

Deb has helped me in my writing journey in countless ways. She’s been a constant cheerleader, championing my talent and my work when I’ve doubted myself. Her kind words and encouragement have helped me continue to pursue my dream at times when I contemplated quitting. She also provides invaluable feedback and has such an eye for detail, especially in character consistency and story logic. Deb definitely has an ear for dialogue as well, and her critiques have helped me develop distinct voices for my characters.

Not only is Deb encouraging, optimistic and positive, she offers a unique point of view that writers need.

Deb is instrumental in my writing process. Not only is she encouraging, optimistic and positive, she offers a unique point of view that writers need. She has the amazing ability to recognize when something isn’t working, provide critical feedback without destroying someone’s creative spirit, and helps shape the context of the story into a better story. She’s also open minded to what YOU want your story to be, not what she wants it to be and helps drive you down that path with her feedback. What writer doesn’t want that?!

AWESOMESAUCE WRITERS

From aspiring to experienced, we focus on confidence and writing skills so you can produce-produce-produce while maintaining your sanity through the process (edits, critiques, submissions and rejection).

PUBLISHED AUTHORS

Whether self-pubber or traditionalist, we focus on growth of your stark-raving-fan list and increased sales. We dive deep into mindset, brand, social media platforms and tribe building strategies.

MULTI-PASSIONATE WORD WARRIORS

For the rainbow-riding, glitter-flying, take-no-prisoners writer, we focus on the integration of your biz (from your alternate passion) with life and writing so you get paid while building your writing career.

I’m a Molotov cocktail in Hello Kitty packaging who’s been navigating trauma for the last 30+ years, weaving those truths into commercial fiction for the last 8, coaching visionary women for the last 3, and firing glitter cannons since I realized I actually do like the color pink.

I’ve snorkeled the Palancar Reef and stood on the pyramids of Teotihuacan. I’ve crossed the Golden Gate Bridge and shed tears at the 9/11 Memorial. And I’ve traversed my own personal dark night of the soul (read: posttraumatic stress disorder) to come out the other side with a few scars, a deeper love of self, and an immovable commitment to live a life true to me.

And now I’m committed to helping you create that for yourself.

(Not the scars part, the self-love and live-true-to-yourself part.)

Best part? You don’t have to wait for someday.

ISN’T IT TIME TO DO WHAT YOU LOVE WHILE PAYING THE BILLS, TRAVELING THE WORLD, AND LIVING YOUR HAPPILY EPIC AFTER?

MORE LOVES AND HUGS

Eve Nicholson

Author, Tripartite Soul

“When I stepped onto the writing path, it was a huge leap into the dark. I didn’t know the beginning from the end of writing. I only knew I had stories to tell. Deb reached out to me and, with patience and determination, taught me everything from how to format a story to social networking. She held my hand (literally) as I was given my first critiques and showed me how to turn my weaknesses into strengths. She praised every accomplishment and urged me forward with each setback. She has been a coach, an advocate, an editor, an auditor, a brainstorming partner, an unfailing guide, and a wonderful friend.”

Kareena Yashko

Writer, YA

“Debbie is an amazing woman. She gave the perfect combination of ideas and encouragement, but did not make herself the center of my healing and growth. Deb is an amazing mentor, especially in regards to writing. If you’re looking to move forward and do great things with your life, she is definitely someone that can help you go far.”

Gen Smith

Gymnastics Coach

“I clicked with Deb in an instant! She had a gentle but bold way of showing me new ideas and making me push myself to reach new understanding. You will rarely have an opportunity to work with someone as thoughtful, present, loving, and hard working as Deb. She is inspired, friendly and caring and I have met few people who are as open minded as she is. I have grown leaps and bounds through her coaching and would highly recommend her to anyone wanting to make a change in their life!”

YA KNOW… THE BRAIN STUFFS

Are you afraid you are a fraud?

I recently had the opportunity to fly to a business retreat in Hawaii in First Class. I know it’s not for everyone—and that’s okay!—but it is totally an experience I love and I take it any chance I can. (Pro Tip + Side Note: It’s not as unachievable as you think! I...

Everyone Needs a Power Posse

I couldn't have made it without them. My team. My Twitterbloc. We started back in--what?--2012. Just a bunch of crazy, introverted writers who decided to share a room together for DFWCon (a writer's conference in Dallas) and hoped to all that was holy that none of the...

Don’t Feed the Crazy

I have been working with a client recently who is the target of, what I call, crazy. It happens. It could be a friend, a family member, a co-worker, a fellow writer or someone you weren't even aware of who gets triggered by something you said, did, or wrote and they...
