I have been a full-time writer for 20 years, a creative writing tutor for ten of those and a creativity coach for a little less. During all that time I have been guided by the insights of writers who, like me, persevered with trying to be the best writer they could possibly be. Discover some of that valuable wisdom for yourself.
