I want you to write with ease and fall in love with your stories. I’m Leigh Shulman, a writer, author, and creative mentor who’s spent over 20 years helping people write the books they’ve dreamed of but didn’t think they could finish. Through one-on-one coaching, group programs, and community building, I support writers as they build sustainable habits, master the craft of storytelling, and bring their voices to the world with confidence. My work blends the science of habit-building with the intuitive art of writing. I use neuroscience-backed strategies, mindful creative practices, and decades of teaching experience to support writers as they move past fear, find clarity, and write with purpose. I founded a global writing community where writers learn, connect, and grow—not just in skill, but in mindset. I also run workshops and courses that teach people how to write, edit, pitch, and publish their work—while creating a writing life that supports joy, ease, and income. Whether you’re just starting out or you’re sitting on an unfinished manuscript, I’m here to remind you: your words matter. Your voice matters. And it’s never too late to write the book only you can write. ✍️ What I help writers with: 💡 Building writing habits that stick 💡 Getting unstuck and finishing drafts 💡 Book coaching (fiction, memoir, nonfiction) 💡 Editing and feedback strategies 💡 Publishing and pitching guidance 💡 Turning your writing into income Let’s connect if you're ready to write your book—and want expert, compassionate support to get there.
