"The Writing Coach"

Coaching, Mentoring and Literary Consultancy for Writers and Creative Artists

If you recognize yourself in any of the above statements, you’ve come to the right place.

I’m Jacqui Lofthouse, The Writing Coach. As a novelist, a literary consultant and a life coach, my passion is connecting with people like you, fellow creative individuals who wish to deepen their connection with their work, whilst leading a life which is successful and fulfilling. If you are a writer or artist looking to explore your creative potential, do take a look about my site.

If you are experiencing writer's block, or simply wish to be more productive and confident in your writing, my e-book “The Writing Coach” can help. The eBook is a distillation of what I have learned about the creative process over the last twelve years as a professsional novelist, creative writing teacher and coach. It is a 30 Day programme, designed to support you as you conquer self-doubt and procrastination, gain creative confidence and write 30,000 words in 30 days.

When you sign up for my free regular newsletter, “This Writing Life” you will receive a copy of my article “20 Inspirational and Motivational Tips for Writers and Creative Artists” and a free copy of 'The First Five Days' of my E-book “The Writing Coach” enabling you to begin the programme and write 5000 words in 5 days. In my newsletter, I share regular inspirational ideas about the writing process, as well as creative writing exercises, interviews with industry professionals and thoughts on how we can nurture ourselves as artists. I invite you to sign up by filling in the box at the bottom of this page or on the Free Stuff page.

My aim is to support writers at every stage of their writing lives. If you would like to write a book but need support to help motivate and inspire you, please get in touch for a discussion to find out how Personal Coaching could work for you.

My Literary Consultancy offers you a full and constructive written report on your work-in-progress, but in addition, I work with Consultancy clients by phone, so we can talk about your work and have a more personal connection. In the New Year, I will also introduce you to new and trusted literary consultants at The Writing Coach.

Whatever challenges you are facing in your artistic or your personal life, we can work together to uncover your creative strengths and design a writing life that is perfect for you.
