I’m a teacher. That means I champion writers, one individual at a time, in small goal-focused groups called classes and dream teams.
I specialize in working with mom writers. I also specialize in training expert journalists. Most of the expert journalists I train are mom writers. Go figure.
We do things differently than what you will learn anywhere else. We have priorities that make sense for busy moms in the gig economy.
We have quit the who do you think I should be? club and joined the build a powerful career-from-scratch club.
I don’t have everything to offer everyone. But I have a wealth of help that can make a world of difference for one writer at a time.
If you are looking for less general advice and more specific attention to your strengths in the actual building of your body of work and the deepening and expanding of your professional reputation, then I would love to work with you.
If you want to learn from me, but you don’t actually wish to get your butt kicked by me personally, that’s fine. You can always find the principles I teach in my books and e-books.
But if you are ready to work with me, you really should. If for no other reason, just to see how much harder you could be pushing yourself and what kind of results that might create.
Here’s what a few folks say who have recently worked with me:
I really enjoyed taking WPPS with Christina. Having a seasoned professional critique my assignments was invaluable and helped me take my writing to the next level. ~ Laura L.
Thanks to Christina’s courses and dream team, I have a real plan for my writing career. “What is the next step?” Christina asks students this question throughout the course of the class, which, along with her expertise and genuine support and encouragement, has helped me turn ideas into actionable results and published work. ~ Heather V.
Practicing pitches week after week with a knowledgeable instructor to give her wise advice and critiques is just what I needed to break out of my rut and break into bigger markets. Thanks, Christina! ~ Deanne H.
If you are new to query writing and would like to produce six polished, editor-ready queries in six weeks then take this class. Writing a query each week may seem like a stretch, but it sharpens your skills and best of all you finish the class with six queries ready to go. ~ Lisa S.
I came to this class completely new to the world of platform-building. In six weeks Christina took me from having a vague idea of what direction I should head to a concrete plan for the immediate future. I can’t wait to take other classes with her! ~ Sarah P.
Christina is like having a personal trainer for your writing; she encourages you and pushes you harder than you might like, because she sees untapped potential that you don’t. But if you get past your grumpiness, you’ll find your writing in better shape for it. ~ Kim T.
The 60 Ways class allows you to get into the flow of your ideas while setting aside personal insecurities and worries about perfection. Christina shares a process that you can use long after the class is over to shake off the dust, explore and dig deeper into your ideas. I came away feeling energized and enthusiastic about the possibilities and confident that I could use what I had learned long into the future. I highly recommend this class to anyone feeling stuck and unsure about how to move forward. ~ Christa H.
After the final week class, it’s like a Writer’s Christmas – you have all these packages of writing to open and play with. ~ Lela D.
If you are ready to uncover your unique professional potential, then I’m ready to help you do just that.
