Private One-on-One Coaching for Writers
I work privately with a small number of creative nonfiction writers to strengthen and refine their memoirs, personal essays, and voice-driven work. My goal is to help writers produce finished manuscripts that are authentic, artful, and alive on the page. In our time together, writers and I can focus on anything from structure and pacing to voice, vulnerability, and sentence-level craft.
I currently have a limited number of Summer 2026 openings for private clients. My one-on-one offerings includes industry-insider consultations, coaching sessions with editorial feedback, red line editing, and more. Learn more here.
“Savala is a coach who gives you permission to dig deeper, but she’s in it with you. Her sessions expanded my understanding of writing. So often in writing, people say ‘show, don’t tell,’ but Savala actually helped me understand how to do that while creating a space that felt thoughtful, generous, and fun.”
“I genuinely believe these sessions were the highlight of my week. They gave me so much encouragement to keep pushing.”
