TESTIMONIALS

Lucy immediately clicked with my story, and her sharp insight and professionalism, paired with gentle encouragement, helped me fall in love with my characters from the perspective of someone reading the story for the first time. She’s an absolute powerhouse of insight. Through our sessions, she was professional, lovely, and created a safe space for discussion and learning that made me feel empowered. Her belief in my literary voice made me feel seen in a way that inspired me to write as my best self. She encouraged me to lean into the strange, offbeat elements of my writing that I was beginning to lose faith in, but that I now recognise might be what sets me apart.

GLORY– 2 & 5 x 1 hr sessions

Lucy has been frankly superb. She gave me incredibly detailed and specific feedback. As an autistic ADHDer, Lucy explained to me the value of rest. Proper scheduling and learning to reduce symptoms of burn out through her methods has been a lifesaver. Lucy was kind and patient. I felt very empowered and looked forward to sessions. Her unwavering support of my work has been nothing short of inspiring and empowering. Most importantly, Lucy gave me confidence in my work.

CONNOR – 2 x 1 hr sessions

I absolutely loved working with Lucy on my submission pack. If you’re thinking about querying your work, I can’t recommend reaching out to her enough, she’s incredibly knowledgeable and offered me so much helpful insight into what to expect once I start my querying journey. On top of that, her feedback on my sample pages was amazing; it really helped me feel more confident in my work. What really stood out was how kind and approachable Lucy is. I felt completely comfortable discussing my novel with her, which, as any writer knows, isn’t always easy! She genuinely makes the whole process feel encouraging and supportive, and I’m so grateful for her guidance.

HOLLY – Query Advice Session

I’m so thankful to have had the chance to work with Lucy. I left each session with her feeling more and more confident in my story idea and abilities. She was so kind and approachable. She immediately put me at ease the first time we met. Every time I feel imposter syndrome creeping in, I pick up and read her detailed written feedback and words of encouragement, and I immediately feel better. Any writer would be lucky to have Lucy in their corner, both for her deep insight and knowledge of craft, and also for her unwavering support.

BRIDGETTE – 5 x 1hr sessions

From the very start of our sessions Lucy made me feel welcomed and safe. She celebrated my passion for writing but most importantly she understood that passion. Aside from my sister, Lucy is the first ever person I have shared my writing to for feedback, this is evidence of Lucy’s kind and empowering sessions. I know my voice is celebrated and nurtured under Lucy. I know my voice will be kept safe under her. This story means the literal world to me and feeling like I can share this with Lucy, says more about Lucy’s nature more than I can put in words. I am grateful for her sessions and for the foundation I have built from it for my writing career.
