Writing can be a very lonely practice, and it’s often a struggle to hold onto the discipline and drive to continue when you lack a circle of sympathetic friends or colleagues to encourage you. Having come from a working-class background to find a foothold in an industry that can seem small, elitist and impenetrable to an outsider, I know how essential it is to have a trusted reader in order to improve technique and gain the confidence to pursue a writing career, or even simply to finish a manuscript.
I work as a mentor with both new writers and more experienced authors, helping them develop their stories, and edit their work, focussing on structure, character and plot.
Please feel free to get in touch by emailing me at jason@lovelikeatoms.com, to talk about your book and find out if mentorship would help you. I have a variety of programmes to suit each writer’s needs, and I also offer significant discounts for writers from unrepresented backgrounds and limited income.
