Each writer is really quite imaginative and it is really rewarding to assist with someone’s realizing their potential as a writer or working out tricky aspects of their piece.

What challenges you most about writing?

With learning difficulties, I struggle to envision and conceptualize my essays.

What advice do you have for writers?
