It’s not uncommon for a woman in mid-life to look back on her youth and wonder how things might have been different if only she’d had time to nurture her creativity. So often, life gets in our way, and we end up lovingly living our labels—mother, partner, daughter, profession—instead of finding time for our creative dreams.

If writing a novel is a dream of yours, I’d love to work with you.

Perhaps you're already most of the way through a novel or a collection of short stories? Maybe you have the kernel of an idea and don’t know how to make it grow? Maybe you’ve been writing all your life and need support honing your skills?

It can be hard to know where to start, how to structure your practice and find time for your writing, how to develop your writing skills, and how to refine your work.

That’s where I come in.

I’m Samantha Keller, an Author Educator, Book Coach, Developmental Editor, and founder of A Fine Line. I help mid-life women find clarity and build confidence in their writing voice, and make steady progress through a set of services designed to meet your needs: Define, Refine, and Review. This approach will guide you from idea to manuscript, with a focus on strengthening your skills so you can write with confidence long after your book is complete.

Do you ever wish you’d written that book?
