2026-27 Program Updates
Each season, I work with a small cohort of writers in a 1:1 private coaching capacity or through my manuscript editing program Manuscript Tune-Up. Here’s a list of current programs for the 2026-2027 year. Be in touch to discuss which program is right for you. For subscribed programs, a waitlist will operate and if a spot opens up, I’ll be in touch on a first-come basis.

Finding my own voice: Barb's story
Who do you trust with your writing?
Earlier this spring, I was invited to be part of a keynote panel at the Atlantic Universities Undergraduate English Conference. The panel was directed at a gathering of undergraduate students active in creative writing. We were there to talk about writing in a fractured world. As writers, what gives us hope when so many things seem to be coming apart at the seams? The conversation was lively, full of humour and great stories.
