Who We Are
My bespoke writing services reflect your needs; I help you craft stories that speak directly to your intended audience.
Storytelling is at the heart of what I do: I help you turn chaos into continuity, find tension in the typical, and engage readers from the outset.
The company name, Amicus Advising, comes from the legal term amicus curiae, which means “friend of the court.” And I consider myself just that. My advising process is friendly and supportive — and my testimonials speak to that. I demystify and destress writing. And I am happy to advise you on your writing at any stage, whether you are conjuring your idea, wrestling words onto the page, or sculpting away your final draft’s superfluities.
The end result? Writing that presents the most compelling possible version of your narrative.
I can’t wait to work with you.
