Meet Leigh

Create the Writing Life You’ve Always Wanted

For years, I tried to write but never finished anything. I had endless ideas for books, articles, poems, you name it. I had so many ideas, they overwhelmed me and it was impossible. I never got anything done.

Does this sound familiar?

Then one day, I realized something that changed everything.

Chaos is part of being a writer. Chaos is the force that drives innovation, so we need to embrace it and let instinct guide our creative efforts. The key is knowing when to let the chaos run free and when it’s time to follow a plan. You need a plan with a clear destination, because if you don’t know WHERE you’re going, how can you ever hope to get there?

So I created a four-step plan to organize my own writing life. It worked so well for me, I began to use it with clients. My clients benefitted so much from this process, I decided I had to make this writing plan accessible to anyone who wants it.

Yes, Just four steps.

It takes work and dedication, but it’s not complicated. In fact, you’ll find having a plan simplifies your decision making and helps you focus on what you want so you can make it happen.
