Watch out for offerings or inquire about a customized workshop for your reading or writing group. Rates vary.

"If you're looking for a purposeful and creative way to spend a Saturday afternoon, look no further than Georgina Key's Lyrical Prose workshop. Here you will read stimulating prose together, write your won prose in response to writing prompts, music, and art, and bask in the glow of a warm and congenial atmosphere populated by other budding and experienced writers. Even though this workshop was on Zoom, the shared creative space that Georgina skillfully facilitated offered a rich and fertile soil for letting our imaginations run wild on paper. Highly recommend." Meenakshi

"Georgina has processes for coaxing the seemingly elusive: creativity! Using a range of techniques, she soon has her writers putting words to paper and feeling thoroughly engaged in the possibilities. She has a warmth and passion for writing combined with a strong sense of quality that gives students the confidence to keep working and refining. Georgina is skillful at leading group classes with sensitivity and respect, creating a safe environment for participants to share. I highly recommend her classes for both the experienced and beginning writer." Aralee

Individual Coaching Sessions (finish your first draft)

(Weekly, bi-weekly, and monthly options). I customize my approach for each writer according to their needs and budget. Includes line-reading and providing detailed written feedback that we will discuss one-on-one in person or virtually. $100/hour."

"It's been so helpful to have early feedback on sections of my new project, and I've thoroughly enjoyed stretching my writing muscles with your readings and prompts." Elise 

"Georgina has been the perfect writing coach for my first draft. It's like being in a private writer's workshop with a literary editor. I gained confidence as a writer with her insightful encouragement and helpful critique. She even gave me a writing exercise which helped my character come to life. I highly recommend Georgina if you are serious about finishing your manuscript."  Amy

This is a full assessment of a completed first draft of a manuscript. I provide in-line notes along with written feedback offering suggestions for revision. Also included is a one-hour discussion of the written feedback. Fees: $75/hr (e.g. 80,000 words=approximately 30-40 hours depending on complexity and individual needs.)

"I couldn't see my novel finished before. Now I can. Big thumbs up." Mike
