Consulting Services
There is a lot of uncertainty in writing. You might not be sure if your ideas are good enough, you might need advice or you'd like to collaborate with a professional to build up your plot and characters. Well, I am that professional, and I love to help guide new authors and experienced authors alike when they feel stuck.
​
PHONE CALL (up to 45 minutes):
Cost: R250 | $15 | £12 | €15
​
This is perfect for clients who want to "meet" me and voice their needs, whether that be regarding editing or formatting. We can also chat about potential book ideas, devise a plan for an upcoming book or discuss any uncertainties. For non-South-African clients, this conversation will have to take place via a WhatsApp call, as overseas call charges are too expensive.
​
A DEVELOPMENT SESSION (up to 2 hours):
Cost: R500 | $28 | £25 | €28
​
This session will involve collaborating on a Google Docs file to build up a plot and characters. We can either chat via the phone or alternatively chat via the messenger on Google Docs.
​
This includes:
- advice, ideas and my opinion
- character development, such as who they are, what they look like, their inner motivations, etc.
- plot development, such as the core theme, potential plot twists, narrator choices, the general timeline, etc.
- world building

EMAIL/TEXT CONVERSATION:
Cost: free
​
If you'd like to have a small discussion, I'm more than happy to. As this is a free service, I will reply when I can, although I will happily discuss anything you want. If I feel the conversation warrants a phone call, I will tell you so, but otherwise, any general advice on my end is free.
