Beautifully Devastatingly Human
Author Mentorship & Book Coaching
Whether you start, finish, or finally make it through your messy middle, you’ll walk away with progress in your book’s right direction.
You aren’t “doing it wrong.” You’re thinking and writing in a way that’s wrong for you.
If your book has been whispering to you… if your stories are circling but won’t land… if your writing feels tangled in fear, perfectionism, or pressure to perform — you’re not alone.
Your right way isn’t about rigidity. It’s about rhythm.
Your right way isn’t about external pressure. It’s about internal knowing.
Your right way isn’t about performance metrics. It’s about emotional truth.
You don’t need another generic formula. You need a process that honors your intuition & depth.
Beautifully Devastatingly Human:
Book coaching and mentorship for sensitive novelists & memoirists who want to write emotionally-gripping, unputdownable books in a writing process unique to your non-linear way of thinking, feeling, and creating..
This isn’t just a writing program.
It’s a space where the way you work best and your creative voice is seen, held, and cultivated.
During our time you’ll be guided back into your own natural rhythm — the one where writing becomes less of a “chore” and more of a return to the childlike daydreamer in you. The “ooh! What does this do?!” part of you that still lives inside.
Through a unique blend of emotional support, intuitive story/character development, and accountability, you’ll finally make progress in your book’s right direction… without rigid outlines, grinding toward a word count, or doing things “because that’s what the craft books/professors/editors/agents say.”
The Details
This is for you if:
You’ve had a book (or essays, or stories) circling in your soul for years, but can’t seem to start — or finish because what if it’s not good enough? What if nobody cares? What if…?
You feel overwhelmed by outlining and planning, or your more intuitive way of writing has left you with pieces of a story scattered across your Notes app and Google Docs and notebooks and napkins, so you shut down when you try to write
You’ve tried rigid writing plans… and they leave you shaking your head in frustration saying “never again” or worse, “why can’t I do this? What’s wrong with me?”
You long to be emotionally honest and write raw and unfiltered, but fear judgment from parents, siblings, children, friends, co-workers and even strangers online
You want someone to walk with you — not force you into rigid structures with generic writing advice, but someone who really sees you as a writer and human to help you say the hard truths that scare you most
In this intimate, 1:1 mentorship you’ll receive:
Weekly 50-minute, 1:1 Sessions — grounded guidance that adapts to your unique story and creative flow
Fluid, Flexible Schedule — we co-create your intuitive writing rhythm for a process that feels sustainable, enjoyable, and supports your non-linear way of thinking, feeling, and creating
Narrative & Character Support — a story rich and raw with emotional connection through deep exploration of characters, themes, plot, and structure
Feedback—generous, high-level feedback on up to 8 pages a week to deepen your story and strengthen your writing
Nervous System & Emotional Regulation Tools — write from a calm, resourced place
Voice Note Support (Tuesday - Thursday)— ongoing, spacious brainstorming and reflection between sessions
It’s not just about writing pages. It’s about reclaiming your voice and identity as a writer.
By the end of our time together, you will:
Feel emotionally connected and confident in the direction of your novel or memoir
Trust your unique process and know how to follow it
Experience writing as an act of self-trust, not self-pressure
Have moved through stuckness and self-doubt — and into a novel or memoir draft you’re ready to share with readers, or have a solid jumping off point to finish your current or any subsequent drafts
Be deeply proud of what you’ve written… and who you’ve become

Why this isn’t just any writing mentorship
Because I don’t coach from rigid plans or generic formulas.
I hold your non-linear creative process with reverence — and help you remember how to feel safe exploring emotional depth and being honest on the page whether you’re writing fiction or memoir.
I’ve walked through the fear of being “too much.” I’ve sat with the chaos of too many ideas; not knowing where to start, where to go next, or how to finish. I’ve sat with the crushing, “am I doing this right?” and I know how to guide you through it… back to the rhythm of what’s real and right for you.
This is your moment to slow down and listen to what’s inside.
You don’t need to be “ready.”
You just need to begin.
If your body is saying yes — even a quiet one — let’s walk this path together.
'I really started on this project with a prayer and a dream to be honest. l knew l wanted to write a story, and I knew a few things about who and where it was about, but that was it.
And what Tiffany did with that in such a short period of time was genuine magic we created so much of these people, and so much or their lives, and suddenly l cared about them and knew them and realized what their story was going to be about. Somehow, thanks to her, now I have an entire first part or a book and actual plans for the rest. And it feels like it's a story worth telling, and that's because of her. She is not only a spectacular and emotional and genuine writer but she's also a brilliant and informed and insightful teacher, which is an insane combination if l ever saw one. I could never thank her enough.
Working with Tiffany is honestly to me about as close as you can get to working with an oracle She will just casually hand out these nieces of information or insight that are so profoundly correct. so creatively important. that it I change everything you're writing for the better - and she'll do it like it's nothing. Over and over again. She'l do it while simultaneously holding so much empathy and emotional honesty for you and for herself so you never feel talked down to. you never fee like an imposter. That makes it so much easier to write emotionally honest characters. because it's an emotionally honest space.
It's really special. to be able to work with a person who can do that. Tiffany's probably the smartest person l've ever talked to. let alone worked with like this. It was a fucking joy. "
