Teachers
When serving individual writers, we support you from initial idea to finished manuscript. Through feedback, editing, and coaching, we provide guidance and actionable steps in order to foster your creativity and growth.

Fantastic job. Took a list of vague notes and turned them into a fully fleshed out story that kept the laughs and action rolling in at a steady pace. Extremely easy to work with, gave minimal direction and he was able to knock it out of the park. Will definitely use again in the future! A true pleasure to work with, amazing job!

The communication throughout the project was excellent, and it was delivered quickly and flawlessly. The entire process was smooth, and I am very pleased with the final result. I highly recommend "Coach Mike" and his range of services! I will continue to hire this professional team for all my future writing projects.

WHAT THEY SAY ABOUT US
I had the pleasure of working with Michael Jaymes as a writing coach and editor. It was a great experience. He was clear, practical, and positive about writing and storytelling. The feedback was not just surface level, he answered my questions and gave concrete suggestions, helping me see my project anew. Most notably, his feedback combined helpful critique with real support. I didn't just have concrete steps to improve my writing, but I left feeling energized and confident about my work. If you're looking for a writing coach who really has your best interests as a writer at heart, I highly recommend working with him.
